In honor of today's release of Doctor Tomorrow #5, the final issue of the series (for now), I thought it'd be fun to relive some key moments from issue #1. Spoiler Alert: While nothing here will surprise people who have read my previous reviews, or read the first four issues, if you've yet to read Doctor Tomorrow #1, you may wish to go out to your local comic store, and purchase Doctor Tomorrow #1, before reading this fond look back at Doctor Tomorrow #1.
Okay, I'll stop mentioning Doctor Tomorrow #1 now, and get on with the fond look back part.
First up is when young Bart's seemingly ultimate self appears, and tells the boy, "Help me save your world." Talk about a great hero moment!
I wonder if author Alejandro Arbona dreamed of this happening to him in his youth.
Next up is when Hadrian appears in our world. Readers previously saw him defeat the Valiant heroes of another universe before destroying their world. Now he's busting in on us, and capturing something that could help him destroy our world.
Way to capture such classic villainy, artist Jim Towe and colorist Kelly Fitzpatrick!
Here's that special moment every boy dreams of: young Bart puts on a superhero suit that gives him special powers and abilities. FWASH indeed letterer Clayton Cowles. FWASH indeed!
Finally, here's the introduction of two new characters in today's Valiant Universe. They're both scientists, and one of them is a dinosaur! COVID-19 may have cost us the release of the second Savage miniseries (for now), but at least Doctor Tomorrow gave us a little Dino-action, albeit in a totally different way.
These two scientists play larger roles in Doctor Tomorrow #2, which is the only issue I didn't review. My bad. Maybe I can rectify that oversight in the future.
Doctor Tomorrow #5 is in your local comic store now, so don't let me detain you any longer. Secure your copy before they're all sold out!
