The Four Color Media Monitor

Here's a review I wrote for the Sword of the Atom TPB for the Longbox Project, collecting the 4-part miniseries and 3 specials from the mid-80s by Jan Strnad and Gil Kane (with Pat Broderick drawing the last part). It's something I was very happy to write as part of my belief that even minor superheroes can make for great storytelling if we put the story quality ahead of the popularity ranks of various superhero casts. Many thanks to webmaster Max Delgado for asking me to work on it.
