Mr. Terrific’s origin story will be “dramatically revisited and expanded” in a new solo comic

With DC hero Mr. Terrific set to appear in this summer’s Superman movie, played by Edi Gathegi, it’s no surprise that DC is turning its attention to the long-running character once again with a new solo comic.

Mr. Terrific: Year One is a new six-issue limited series from writer Al Letson, artist Valentine De Landro (with additional art by Edwin Galmon), colorist Marissa Louise, and letterer Lucas Gattoni. Although some parts of the new series will take place in the present, the majority of the comic appears to turn the clock back to the beginning of Michael Holt’s career as a hero, and particularly his tragic origin story which will be “dramatically revisited and expanded,” according to DC.
