A bit too 'aww shucks' for me at times but otherwise a great book that deals with often underrepresented themes.

fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

The first volume of Animal Man is very interesting - it's episodic but there is a strange sense of something bigger happening, even if I can't come close to guessing what. Maybe Buddy is mad? Oh well, I will be reading more to find out exactly what is happening!

4 stars simply for that Wile E. Coyote in the real world take off. Trippy.

I actually enjoyed this more than I probably thought I would. I read this right after my arduous journey through Morrison's run in Batman, and prayed to God that this wasn't as confusing.
It wasn't, it obviously has all the elements of Grant Morrison which you either love or hate, making this a solid 3* for me.

This was a lot of fun! Morrison's a weirdo but as a result this felt really creative and fresh. I found Animal Man's character arc to be pretty effective, and it's cool to see him politicized in the first few issues.

Algunas de las historias un poco flojas, pero me ha caído simpático Animal Man y su estilo de vida, intentando compaginar la vida familiar con su vuelta a ser un héroe.

Sólo por la historia de El Evangelio según Crafty valdría la pena el tomo, pero el resto es el mejor Grant Morrison que podéis leer, haciendo una cosa que siempre me parece especialmente interesante, que es coger a un personaje de segunda o tercera fila y darle una nueva vida.
Animal Man se mueve a un nivel de calle: tiene una familia y facturas que pagar y no se cobra de superhéroe. Sus poderes son raros porque dependen de los animales que haya cerca. Nadie se lo toma en serio. Y sin embargo, tiene un potencial enorme, en medio de unas historias que muestran el surrealismo marca Grant Morrison.
Un clásico que recomiendo sin reservas.

RIP Wile E. Coyote.
Yes, he's in this.
No, it's not the fabled Looney Toons crossover with DC.
But duuuude...
