Killian was a memorable character from volume 1 of Fathom. Here, we get the story of his tragic descent into villainy, and we learn why he became the cold, ruthless dissident of his people. While I feel there could have been more room to expand on Killian’s origin, what we have here is pretty streamlined.
Killian’s Tide is that classic origin issue, in this case a series, which explains the villain’s tragic beginnings. The series looks at Killian’s roots and how his hatred towards the humans came to be, and just how it was that Killian was set upon the road he travels. Written by Michael Turner and Bill O’Neil, they have created a great little series that explores the main villain from the first volume of Fathom. Featuring some great, early artwork by Talent Caldwell, it is the perfect jumping-on...
I read this from a friend's comic book collection and mostly because the art was spectacular. The story wasn't terrible but it just didn't grab me. I didn't find the characters very interesting and overall it just seemed kind of generic. I think it would probably work pretty well for a younger (teen) audience but this old guy was bored.
And the villain is born. Meh
