Harbinger: Omegas #1 is divided into two separate stories – one centering on Toyo Harada, and one on Peter. If you haven’t yet read the final arc of Harbinger, we highly recommend you do so for a little background as to how we got to this point, but here’s a recap of this issue.
Toyo Harada and a group of psiots head aboard the U.S.S. George Bush for what the world believes is Harada’s surrender. In reality, Harada has concocted a plan to take over the nuclear warship and take everyone on board hostage, using the Marines as his personal enforcers on the ship. He also has brought along a group of psiots – superpowered beings – to neutralize the rest of the naval and aerial forces guarding the U.S.S. George Bush and embark to an as-yet-unknown destination. In front of the world press, Harada warns that anyone who opposes him will be destroyed.
Meanwhile, Peter Stanchek is seen living a solitary life, hidden from the world through his own psionic projections which render him essentially invisible. When Project Rising Spirit agent Tull captures Kris, and learns that Peter is still alive, Tull leaks the information to the press. Peter leaves the confines of his hideout possibly in search of answers.
Joshua Dysart proves once again why he is the perfect writer for these characters. The issue starts off strong with Harada’s story and it is fascinating to see the extents to which Harada will go to get what he wants. Harada is a strategic mastermind, taking only those psiots which he needs to take over the aircraft carrier on which he is supposed to surrender, a force so small that no one suspects what he could be up to.
Peter’s story is a little less interesting, but only in that it lacks the action and suspense of the first half of the book. Peter is hiding himself from the and using projections of his dead friends as his sole companions.
It was great seeing Charlene (Flamingo) and Joe again, even if they are still dead and only projections in Peter’s mind. It was a little creepy knowing that Peter is having sex with a figment of his imagination, but really shows his state of mind. Over the last few arcs of Harbinger, Peter had showed a good deal of character growth, but after the death of Charlene, the disbandment of his team, and his battle with Harada, his mind is defeated and he seems to have reverted to the person we saw during the first arc of Harbinger – a worthless, purposeless junkie.
Rafa Sandoval does a great job in this first issue. This book is his first work for Valiant and as rabid as Harbinger fans are about these characters, shows a great deal of confidence from the higher-ups in his talent. The actions panels during Harada’s story are breathtaking and full of detail and finesse. Peter’s half of the story lacks action but is just as detailed and refined as the rest of the book. There are lots of facial close-ups in this book and Sandoval’s art does not disappoint. The panel where Harada breaks apart incoming missiles is one of the most detailed panels I have ever seen. A+
As good as the art is, it is David Garcia Cruz’s colors that really make this book stand out. Valiant has some tremendously talented color artists and I look forward to seeing more of Cruz’s work in this series and in the future.

The Lions finally found a little life on offense with
a 12-yard screen to Montgomery and two more touches for the Lions’ power
back for another 11 yards. The Vikings couldn’t
do anything with the good field position, settling for a 56-yard
field goal attempt, which was good. Still, the Vikings kicked
a 52-yard field goal to make it 10-7 Vikings.
Tyson Chandler ran the ball four times for 15 yards,
and Brosmer added five rushing yards of his own. The Lions moved
to midfield at the end of the first half thanks
to an impressive on-the-run throw from Goff to Jameson Williams
for 15 yards.
After dropping consecutive games for the first time since 2022, the Lions are one loss
away from missing out on the playoffs. Detroit continued to insist
on sticking with the run game, rushing five straight times for
a total of 8 yards. Detroit only 196 total yards of offense
prior to a last-minute, pad-statting drive, which would
have been the worst of the entire Dan Campbell era. The defense has kept
them around, but Detroit’s offense isn’t putting
up much of a fight in this potential playoff elimination game.
The Vikings only had three net passing yards for the game,
but the frequent short fields and an explosive run from Jordan Addison made all the difference for the Lions.
Same with Kalif Raymond, Amik Robertson, Al-Quadin Muhammad and others players who aren’t the biggest names but have been integral
ones in Detroit’s recent success. In an NFL where over half of the games are decided by one possession,
that can be chalked up to some regression luck-wise and some regression from the team.
But after being seventh in fourth-down conversion rate last year,
Detroit is 20th this season through 16 weeks.
