Science-Heroism And You August 19, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Tom Strong is a hard-punching, quick-thinking man of action whose every escapade speaks of the progress of mankind as a whole. He's a superhero in a sense that predates the term itself; whether the man is creeping through deepest enchanted jungle or patrolling the cable-car skyways of Millenium City, he resonates the joy of not only the adventure at hand, but all those to come. His book reads with the freedom of a pulp novel and the authority of a modern masterpiece. He's Superman, Doc Savage and Tintin mixed together, with a bit of Phileas Fogg added for flavor.
Buy this book. If you enjoy comics, like the kind of story you can reasonably call a 'yarn,' or simply think of yourself as a bit of a hero in your own right, you'll certainly enjoy it.
Graphic SF Reader September 3, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
More adventures of a Doc Savage type that does have some time for women. In this trade, we get the backstory to the excellent Terra Obscura spinoff. An desperate and exhausted Tom Strange has crossed 30 light years to get help for his planet, a near identical copy to Earth. A huge alien entity has strated remodelling it to turn it into a spaceship, and he has nowhere else to turn.
