By Greg Rucka<\/strong>, Jesus Saiz<\/strong> & Cliff Richards<\/strong> (DC Comics\/Titan Books) One of the many publishing projects that lead into DC’s Infinite Crisis<\/strong>, the Omac Project<\/strong> is a surveillance satellite built by Batman when he realised that he could not fully trust his fellow superheroes.<\/p>\n Using it to gather intelligence is one thing, but when the covert organisation Checkmate not only co-opts it but adds a nano-technology weapon that can transform ordinary citizens into cyborg warriors programmed to destroy superheroes, The Caped Crusader and other do-gooders find themselves fighting for their very survival against the very people they usually fight for.<\/p>\n Although the book has its moments of drama and is very competently illustrated, ultimately it’s just another strand of a larger story, and consequently does not deliver a satisfactory resolution but only sets the scene for yet another book. This story should not be read in isolation \u00e2\u20ac\u201c and sadly, perhaps that is what the publisher intended from the get-go.<\/p>\n \u00c2\u00a9 2005 DC Comics.
