With Firestorm back in a big way as part of DC's Next Level lineup, revisit a pivotal story from writer Gerry Conway and artist Eduardo Pansica!
Gifted with the power of the atom, the superhero known as Firestorm has the building blocks of the universe at his fiery fingertips...but pulling himself together is his biggest challenge of all. Because Firestorm is not just one hero--he's a matrix of minds, including those of students Ronnie Raymond and Jason Rausch and the brilliant Professor Stein. Fused together, the fury of Firestorm is a force to be reckoned with. But broken apart, it's a ticking time bomb...and everyone from Firestorm's worst adversaries to the U.S. government wants to have their fingers on the button. Now Jason, Ronnie, and Professor Stein are locked in a race against time--and fearsome foes like Danton Black and Major Force--to preserve the Firestorm Protocol before it falls apart. Can they outrace their enemies and harness the power, or will the fire consume them one by one? Find out in Firestorm: The Nuclear Man, a red-hot action-adventure saga from comics legend and co-creator Gerry Conway and artist Eduardo Pansica!
