Book of Doom: Mysterius the Unfathomable #1

I don’t know any more about this book than what the solicitation tells me.* I don’t know anything about these creators. I do, however, know that I’m sick of most comics I read and the idea of choosing Dark Avengers #1 couldn’t have made me any less enthusiastic. And it’s only $2.99.

So I’m taking this shot in the dark, true to the “expose yourself to new things” spirit in which the Book of Doom project was created. As always, send us your thoughts to doomkopf@doomkopf.com by Friday night to be included in the weekend roundtable.

Written by Jeff Parker (X-Men: The First Class, Agents of Atlas)
Illustrated by Tom Fowler (Green Arrow, Caper)
