Collection: Animal Man – DC Comics – (2011–2014) – #0–29

📘 Series Summary

This New 52 relaunch redefines Buddy Baker with a bold blend of superhero drama and ecological horror. While trying to balance film work, activism, and fatherhood, Buddy is pulled into a terrifying crisis when his daughter Maxine is revealed to be heir to the Red—the lifeforce that connects all animal life.

What begins as a family-focused hero story quickly evolves into a reality-shaking struggle involving ancient forces, grotesque transformations, and the approaching apocalypse known as Rotworld. Without spoiling the twists, this run is deeply emotional, visually unsettling, and widely considered one of the New 52’s strongest character reimaginings.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

• A horror-forward reinvention of the classic hero, praised for its bold tone.
• Maxine Baker becomes one of the DCU’s most compelling child characters.
• Part of a major crossover with Swamp Thing, expanding the mythos of the Red, the Green, and the Rot.
• Balances emotional storytelling with high-stakes cosmic transformation.
• A complete modern run that’s perfect for readers who want a dark, serialized epic.
