*more after the JUMP*hell, i've been a quiet fan of Madman since his early days @ SlaveLaborComics and have always wanted to bash a 1/6th-version of him (but of coz tis all just talk LOL) and i like that LTD has managed to capture his essence, down to the teasing hair and blue-gloves LOL
*well done, Theirry*
and now with a Madman-feature film in the works [wiki] and a brand new Atomic Comics-series from Image Comics (say it fast three times) = Issue#2 just came out this week, so there's still time to start! = Frank/Madman is poised to fly beyond his undeground icon status into pop-culture stardom, IMHO :)
WHO IS MADMAN?"Madman (aka Frank Einstein) is not your average hero. Named after Frank Sinatra and Albert Einstein, his name is also a pun on Frankenstein. Frank was a hitman who was killed in a car accident, then stitched back together and brought to life by a pair of mad scientists, Dr. Egon Boiffard and Dr. Gillespie Flem. This resurrection leaves Frank with supernatural reflexes and a slight degree of precognitive and empathic power. Frank doesn't remember anything about his former life. Frank has only faint, troubling memories relating to his death. Madman's costume is based on the only thing he remembered from his past: a fascination with a comic book character called Mr. Excitement." [wiki]
