Issues 5-8; Hard to review or rate a tradepaper back with only four issues in it. Story progression and character development was good. I like how it's playing with various superhero tropes and showing heroes with flaws. Sometimes I think the Ploutonian is too sensitive in that he is the polar opposite of superman who is very stoic and ernest. Here is a hero/villian who is sensitive and sad; so he takes betrayal and heartbreak too personally.
