Think you know Red Tornado? Think again.

This September marks the launch of RED TORNADO, from writer Kevin VanHook and artist Jose Luis, featuring a snazzy cover from superstar Ed Benes.

The mini-series, which will shed new light on the true origins of the stalwart JLA member/android will also introduce a crew of new characters to the DCU. And if Red Tornado has his way, you’ll also uncover the hero’s true android family. But will this reunion cost Red Tornado the love of his adopted, human family? You’ll have to pick up the first issue to find out. In the meantime, here’s a sneak peek at a character we like to call Red Volcano, designed by artist extraordinaire, J.G. Jones.

    Red Volcano 1st appeared in DC UNIVERSE #0, correct? He was the aid or body guard to Professor Ivo (who was at the time fulfilling an assignment for the Cheetah).

    I just never got this character or the draw to him. He’s a robot who acts like a human. (Vision) The one part where I was interested in him was when turned out to be an Elemental. Now that added some interest. It sounds like they may be leaning towards that again. If so, then I may have to check this out.
