Rising Stars - Mike Strascynski

Comic Books Forum

I've heard a little bit about this mini-series. Anyone know about it? It had something to do with a strange meteor that struck a small town back in the 60's or something, and the energy it released blew outward, hitting every human being in the town. Only the unborn children were affected by it, and they gained powers as a result. The longer the gestation of the child, the weaker their powers would be. The more recent their conception, the stronger they would become after birth.

I think it was supposed to be about how 113 children dealt with the culture that their powers created in their town, and also how the town dealt with their abilities back in the 60's. Apparently, an interesting read, with great art.

Anyone else know of this/like this?

All I know is that this guy created Babylon 5. Hated that show.

-HECK!

It's one of the best comics to come out in a looong time .

can't wait for the movie to come out .

Yes coshawn, I think I heard something about movie talks regarding this comic! I think that might be a good idea, but I also think it would be hard to implement, even though the series apparently focuses on just a handful of the 113 kids.

Coshawn, care to share a bit more about the comic?
