Oi, /co/, I'm looking for a comic I read long ago, it's about a superhero that's a bit of a cunt to everyone and then he learns that because of the nature of his powers he is a living nuclear reactor and will eventually combust and kill a lot of people. Anyone know which it is?
>>84505777
Got any more details? Like what he looked like? Was it a Big 2 comic?
>>84505777
You're thinking of Ching Chong, the New Superman
>>84505869
I remember he wore red and I don't think it was Marvel or DC, if it was it was a different universe, no familiar heroes were around.
>>84505926
What the fuck is that?

Was it Captain Atom? Because that seems to be the standard Captain Atom story.
>>84505952
Was it Solar, Man of the Atom?
>>84506014
No, I think this hero was ever only used in this story. It's all about him coming to terms with his destiny. Quite negative, somewhat deep.
I think "heat" was a common theme, maybe something related was the title but I still can't find it.

Was it a oneshot? A mini?
>>84505952
Can't you tell?
> Broad Shouldered like General Tso
> Handsome like Atilla the Hun
> Slanty eyes like Mickey Rooney
> Huge Cunt like Lucy Liu
It's the New Superman!
I'm actually surprised at the number of characters that are living nuclear reactors that will eventually combust and kill a lot of people.
>>84506135
Holy shit, I remembered seeing this costume as a wee laddie and thought it was the coolest thing ever.
>>84506135
Definitely not, tho I am seeing this theme is not that original now.
It's also not that old, maybe 2009, something like that.
>>84506161
I think it was a mini, I vaguely remember more than one issue.
>>84506162
Gross. I thought that was Marvel's job.

>hating on chinese knockoff superman
It's good.
>>84506229
Kenan is best boy you cunt
Are you sure it was a physically published comic and not something online?
>>84506229
You're sure you're not thinking of Firestorm or something right?
>>84506229
>Gross
Fuck you

>>84506229
But they're Chinese knock off characters. How can you hate totally different Super-man, Bat-man, and Wonder Woman of China.
>>84506356
That's exactly it, thank you, bud.
Fucking Caliente.
>>84506368
I thought they were replacing Clark. I see chink supes have a passionate following by the reaction.
>>84506431
No, he's not replacing Clark. Although they did replace new52 Supes with pre-Flashpoint Supes, but that's a whole 'nother kettle of fish.
>>84506431
I vaguely remembered it from a storytime here on /co/ years ago. Was pretty great, as I recall, but my memory is shit.
>>84506431
It's only had one issue, but it was pretty good. The character is decent, and Superman still exists. Plus I love the idea of China having knock off super heroes.
>>84506484
I don't remember it so well myself, but I liked it at the time. Definitely deserves a new storytime, but my internet is being quite the garbage.
Here's a stronk thick girl for your efforts, if that's still popular 'round these parts.
