His work is so damn good and would be perfect for a Shadow Cabinet or Hardware run. It’s not a hollywood movie, it’s a horror show through and through and I appreciate thatĬaanan White’s art is impeccable as well and makes me wish he would already be given the interiors for a Milestone book. It's a book that shows the true worst-case scenarios of what superhumans in WWII would be like instead of trying to tell some glamorized and watered-down WWII story where heroes are born and rid the world of its greatest injustices.
Some of his characters lack some personality, but the rest of the script being strong more than makes up for that. This book is indeed filled with gratuitous violence, as you see allied soldiers getting torn to pieces in most scenes with Über in action, but it’s also filled with a surprising amount of thought and a story that is only beginning to show the true depth of its complexity. It’s fine not to enjoy this and I get why many were turned off by it, but anyone acting like Gillen & the artists Caanan White are making a nazi power fantasy with this series are out of their self-righteous minds. This was basically Kieron Gillen’s personal meditation on power and fear and I’m surprised there isn’t more buzz around it. But even if she does make it, will the Allies be able to develop super soldiers in time? Now with an army of superpowered Nazis pushing the invading allied soldiers out of Berlin, an undercover British spy must make her way back to her homeland to deliver to the allies the secrets to making superhumans she discovered while undercover, and before the Übermenschen moves from defense to offense. All the Über are capable of wielding a “disruption halo” as well, which is a large beam that is able to distort any matter it comes into contact with. This unit of Übermenschen is led by three of the most powerful superhumans produced by the program called Battleships, while also consisting of Panzermensch, a basic tank class of superpowered humans that aren’t nearly as strong as the battleships. The second world war seems all but over until it’s revealed a Nazi commanding officer has a working Wunderwaffe of Übermenschen, also known as an army of superpowered nazis. It’s 1945 and the Soviets are pushing their way into Berlin, with the other Allies soon to follow.
