1 post | 2 read | 1 to read
Beyond Mars, beyond physical form, beyond human understanding...what's left is the absolute Martian Manhunter! Brought into the Absolute Universe by Deniz Camp and Javier Rodríguez, Absolute Martian Manhunter reinvents the Justice League's resident Martian from top to bottom, taking him on a mind-bending, psychedelic journey that transcends dimensions. An astonishing new version of DC's iconic characters is here! In the Absolute Universe, familiar heroes have been reinvented from the ground up with origin stories that completely reshape both their abilities and their circumstances but maintain the core characteristics than fans have known and loved for decades! FBI Agent John Jones has a problem. His brain has been infected by an alien consciousness calling itself "the Martian," and its perception of reality is utterly incomprehensible to the human psyche. Now he must navigate this new status quo, all while balancing the deeply grounded and important duties of his day job! Deniz Camp and Javier Rodriguez take the Martian Manhunter into the Absolute Universe on a mind-bending, psychedelic trip!Collects Absolute Martian Manhunter #1-6.

Pickpick

The highest of high concepts, Absolute Martian Manhunter is the most formally ambitious of DC's smash hit Absolute line. Rodriguez's art feels deeply inspired by cubism and abstract expressionism. Coloring his own work, Rodriguez does things I've never seen in a comic before. This is the best illustration of existentialism on the market.
