Preview: Brain Boy #1

By Andy Hunsaker

Comic historians may remember Brain Boy as a short-lived Dell Comics character from the 1960s. Dark Horse Comics are comic historians, but they’re all about comic revivals as well. Hence, the telepathic secret agent is getting a refreshing do-over in 2013.

Check out this preview of Brain Boy #1, from writer Fred Van Lente and artists R.B. Silva and Rob Lean. He’s a pretty super psychic.

Comics Editor Andy Hunsaker has written for Yahoo! Movies, Fancast, XfinityTV and UGO, among others, covering movies and television, and has loved comics ever since he read the giant-sized Marvel Treasury Edition of The Rampaging Hulk #26 four thousand times and grew to love guys with weird heads like M.O.D.O.K. and the Bi-Beast.  Therefore, he will also defend Ang Lee's Hulk, although he understands why you don't like it and won't hold that against you.

As far as reviews go, he believes the main point of being a critic is not to pass yourself off as the final arbiter of quality passing holy judgment on a work of art, but rather just to share opinions so that the reader can decide whether or not the critic is someone whose tastes generally align with theirs.  If so, that reviewer is one whose work you can trust if you're curious about a particular title.  If not, cue loud, angry internet vitriol.
