Another recently-read comic:
_Prodigy_ by Mark Millar is about Edison Crane, the smartest man in the world. There's an obvious comparison to DC's Mr. Terrific, but these stories remind me more of Doc Savage (without the gang of sidekicks). They're pure Adventure with a capital A. I lost track of how many lost civilizations he encounters.
One variant cover shows him riding a flaming motorcycle over a chasm while typing on a laptop. That sums him up well.
