 Plastic Man #1 (2018) $3.99 Quantity
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Gail Simone (A) Adriana Melo (CA) Aaron Lopresti Meet Eel O'Brian: a petty thug, thief and con artist who runs a strip club. Hey, he's also dead, at least according to the gang that tossed him out like last week's garbage. Literally. Don't worry, though-he bounced back from all that, and now he's trying to make a new life for himself, but the effort is stretching him pretty thin. How can he get revenge on his old boss, keep a street kid out of trouble, make a dancer fall in love with him and stop a mysterious society from taking over the world? Eel has no idea!

BONUS REVIEW by "Doc" Schaefer
 A true vision of Jack Cole's pliable pal as reimagined for 2018! Gail Simone's vision of the life of Eel O'Brian is totally updated but has a large helping of Jack Cole's original concept. Check out Cole's origin story before he gets all rubbery and you'll see how well Simone plays it forward. And Adriana Melo's art brings a sense of realism to a character who can literally be any shape. The best part is when I saw the cover and wondered if the blond on the cover was Penny from the old Plastic Man cartoon! This has the nugget of a full ongoing series once this storyline is over. From what I see here, 6 issues is not ging to be enough. I give it 10 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
