So, this is Deadman. The latest attempt to resurrect Deadman might be DOA. I hadn’t read any Deadman comics before this. And, as far as I can tell, Deadman has never had a true ongoing series, not since the very first series debuted in the late sixties. He pops in and out of the DCU in much the same way he possesses the bodies of unwitting accomplices to his mission. He either appears in other character’s stories or in his own limited series. With a first issue, you might want to go easy on the newcomers to the lore. Adams has shown us no mercy.
