Sorority Punishment Stories

Fatal: Betrayal

Continued buggery super-heroic lead with Volume # 2 of Fatal .

The Plutonian, former protector of mankind, has become the greatest threat it has faced. Members of Paradigm trying to stop his killing spree by putting himself in search of a possible weak point, perhaps hidden in his citadel.
For its part, the bitterness and hatred Plutonian rehash too long restrained. He visits his former adoptive family whose members are visibly frightened. To prevent detection by the superman and his unusual sense, they are also more pronounced a word since his departure, condemning himself to a life of silence to protect their seeming security.
The Plutonian lonely, misunderstood, unloved ... he passed a point of no return and no longer facing the source of his resentment that in seeking to eradicate the violence.
While an old enemy of the former hero again discreetly surface, the army also gets involved and decides not to finesse in stopping all superhuman, including members of the paradigm, even for this to employ unconventional means.

After an excellent first volume , here is the rest of the series Mark Waid of (screenplay) and Peter Krause (drawing). The action is taken where we had stayed and, despite a small this summary, it is not immediately obvious in the plot go after these few months. A little history on the different characters might not have been too, just to recover more easily in the bath.
After this little time for adaptation, found pleasure in writing effective Waid. The latter reveals a little more in the past, painful, the Plutonian. One notices that, contrary that one might have thought, his first "gaffes" to go back very far. His current psychological state is not entirely due to mere lack of recognition of a growing population demanding, thereby qualifying the words and save the character complexity. Indeed difficult to stay calm and sane when you fear your own family or that you can not sleep with your girlfriend without making him take risks with important physical. This frightening powers, but also the disadvantages that go with it, well here are put forward and contribute significantly to offset the image, often idealized, super-hero.

The six episodes in this collection are followed by a short story (six plates) derived from Irredeemable Special # 1. Waid it done this time teamed with Howard Chaykin old and has a super-criminal, Max Damage, seeking redemption since he survived the carnage of Sky City. An explanatory page lets put this story in the chronology of events and even describes the powers of the individual.
The book ends with a small gallery of covers alternatives.

A title that retains all its interest and to reveal a darker side of super-heroic myth.
