This was an incredibly mixed bag, which is probably not helped by the inconsistency in the creative teams throughout the book. There's an interesting core idea here of an alien warrior sent to be an infiltrator and sabateur, who ends up wanting to be a superhero - but it's so trapped in Silver Age tropes about what a superhero book ought to be that it never realizes its potential.
