6. Alpha One
(The Mighty, DC Comics)
The Mighty is an excellent, tightly paced and plotted comic series, and one that turns its Superman analog’s slow revelation of evil into a slow-burn mystery.
Alpha One is the world’s only superhero, a powered and obligatorily good hero who works with a special law enforcement division designed to help him with his goals. When Alpha’s chief liaison, Captain Shaw, dies mysteriously, Gabriel Cole is promoted to his position. But Cole slowly finds that there is much more to Alpha One than he first thought, and that he’s kinda super creepy.
It begins to escalate when former Captain Taylor Rhines, an old liaison who was driven crazy by his work with Alpha, shows up. And Alpha One has his own plan, a really dark and messed-up plan that takes some real time to build before it pays off.
Such an incredibly solid and wonderful comic, and with a terrifying Superman duplicate, to boot.
