Animal Man

DC Comics is relaunching the critically acclaimed Animal Man series once again.  He was given super powers by aliens and has the ability to tap into the animal kingdom and use nearby animals (ex. bird's ability to fly, gorilla strength, etc.) for his own needs. These powers would be magnified in human form.  Check out preview selections from the upcoming new series. The striking first issue cover is below:

The new series is expected to bring back some of the same horror-themed elements of the previous one.  Animal Man enjoyed a great revival in the 1990s when writer Grant Morrison brought the character back into the mainstream DC universe and shoved him in some strange adventures such as facing the Psycho Pirate and continuity in the DC universe, joining the Justice League and teaming up with the villain Mirror Master. One storyline featured the character's family being killed off but being "revived" later on. 

Here are a few preview panels of the new series:
