Skaar is the character that…

…was once blacked out on Gamma Flight #2’s cover.

Plus he’s on the cover of September’s Gamma Flight #4 (of 5) cover so it’s not like its a secret any more.

The Pulse:

I know many of have enjoyed the Immortal Hulk series and the horror forward series. I find some of these gamma irradiated character’s depicted in more macabre ways, while likely more realistic, I don’t like it in my super-hero comics. Putting that aside, this book had some good characterization and character moments, better than most team books actually, and a decent cliffhanger despite Skaar’s macabre fingers crown forehead. 7 out of 10.
