I was immediately taken with the character; I think the idea of a hero with two secret identities appealed to me, and his deeply weird costume didn't hurt. Regardless, my early exposure to the character made me an enthusiastic and loyal reader of his later series, especially after John Ostrander took over the title in '87.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-1131459433930239482005-11-08T09:17:00.000-05:002005-11-08T09:17:00.000-05:00I wonder if you would say more about "the layered ...I wonder if you would say more about "the layered way" that adults read comics. I'd never really given thought to how I approach comics as an adult as being different from how I approached them as a kid, but I suppose there must be a significant difference...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-1131402094658690092005-11-07T17:21:00.000-05:002005-11-07T17:21:00.000-05:00I was about 11 when I first discovered Firestorm. ...I was about 11 when I first discovered Firestorm. I never found Ronnie, Prof Stein or any of the non-superhuman supporting cast all that interesting. But Firestorm himself was kinda cool...the flames coming out of his head, the billowy sleeves, the nuclear symbols all over the place. As a budding artist, I found Firstorm was a bitch to draw, but an interesting challenge. Actually it was Firestorm's colourful rogues gallery I found the most interesting. Yeah I know some were lame, make that many were lame. But characters like Black Bison and Killer Frost were awesome. It's funny how DC spent the late 80s and early 90's killing off a good chunk of Firestorm's villains, after making Firestorm himself unrecognizeable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
