Don't understand the hype.

Oh boy. This was just bad. I traded for this collection of the first nine issues of Fathom just to see what the deal with it was and if Michael Turner's art was really so great. The deal is that this story is a disaster and all of Turner's characters look the same so I was constantly having to pause and figure out who was talking. I can't believe he made so much cash off this book and that it has such a strong fan following that he could launch his own publishing company just for these characters.

(Review originally written before Turner's passing. No disrespect intended.)
