who doesn’t respond well to being ordered around and isn’t at all above resorting to violence to express himself. Again, the writer is not drawing upon reality for his take on the esteemed scientists who populate his story. The first volume of “The Manhattan Projects” doesn’t tell a complete story as much as it introduces readers to Hickman’s fantastic world and the equally fantastic men who heralded in the atomic age. While the names, likenesses and professions of the brilliant men who round out the cast of “The Manhattan Projects” are familiar, Hickman fabricates, fabricates, and then fabricates some more to create one of the more astonishingly original series in memory. Set during World War II, writer Jonathan Hickman has filled his science fiction tale with real-life renowned physicists and scientists of the period, such as Albert Einstein, Wernher von Braun, Richard Feynman and Robert Oppenheimer, among others.
On the surface there is nothing particularly sexy or titillating about the characters who inhabit “The Manhattan Projects, Volume 1: Science Bad”. Richard Feynman is only of the charming scientists found in “The Manhattan Projects”.
