This last Xombi series was great! Reminded me of Morrison’s Doom Patrol at times. Really hope DC gives the character another chance when/if they get the Milestone properties back up and running. DC and comics in general has a huge lack of Asian American superheroes.

Pretty much this. Xombi is what happens when Milestone and Vertigo collided and it was fabulous!

Had it NOT been for New 52-we might have had a longer run.

The book was already axed before the first issue came out. New 52 not sales was the reason.

This is part of the big two that I dislike. They both set up a universe and try to make their series fit into that universe when both started out as great series that had universes built around.

It would be so cool to see this character get a mainstream push. He’s the rare Asian American hero who isn’t saddled with the stereotypical martial arts troupe. Plus the sci fi horror aspects were so great.
