Description

��B-Buddy..?�

Poor Molly Blank gets the shock of her life when her husband of ten years, Buddy Blank, transforms in front of her eyes into OMAC the One Man Army Corps, while frying alive Mr. Big�s hired goon. Ya gotta feel for Molly here as her husband runs off without giving her a second glance! Plus, it�s two large panel goodness, sprinkled with a couple insets.

John Byrne�s OMAC prestige format miniseries is one of my all-time favorites! I love the new designs for OMAC and the future tech, the use of B&W and duoshade boards, the intricate narrative interwoven with Kirby�s stories, the time-travel elements, the gritty urban and future scenery, which all culminate in a John Byrne four part OMAC extravaganza!

With a little work, Byrne�s OMAC mini could be the basis for an insanely compelling DC summer blockbuster movie or even a streaming series. Personally, I�d cast a younger & bigger Kyle Chandler�he�s got that classic slightly rougher face. You might remember him as 11�s dad in some of the semi-recent Godzilla movies, and it turns out DC just cast him as the new Hal Jordan. Another choice, having just seen images of Liam Hemsworth as the new Witcher, he looks like he�s got the size and could be aging in. I�m pretty limited on today�s actors, lemme know if you have any suggestions.

Art from 1992 - 11x17.

I love pages like that, where it's basically two large panels with one or two small inset panels.

Wonderful page from a great series, by an all-time stellar artist.

This is one of the last things I recall byrne doing that was still of pretty high quality, before the big drop off. An amazing page with three great OMAC images. Not too shabby, Joe!
