Gravity Vol. 3

Gravity Vol. 3 is the Chinese collection of the Marvel miniseries starring Gravity. Its protagonist, Greg Willis, was born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. In the summer after his high school graduation, he was sucked into a mysterious black hole aboard his family's yacht and subsequently discovered that he could control the gravity of himself and surrounding objects. Chasing the dream of becoming a "big-city superhero," he moved to New York, enrolled at New York University to study licensing and merchandising, and fought crime as Gravity while attending classes. The series is written by Sean McKeever and drawn by Mike Norton; the creators deliberately shaped a young hero with the vibe of a 1980s college-student Spider-Man: immensely powerful yet utterly inexperienced, he misjudges friend and foe on his first outing and lets Black Death escape in the chaos. He later clashes repeatedly with villains such as the Rhino, Shocker, and Whirlwind, and learns to keep his composure through repeated humiliation and manipulation at Black Death's hands. This volume is the third installment of the miniseries; picking up the coming-of-age arc of the first two volumes, it continues to portray this rookie hero's search for balance among campus life, friendship, and responsibility.
