Part man, part...rock? Over seven feet tall and weighing over a
thousand pounds, he is known as Concrete but is in reality the mind of
one Ronald Lithgow, trapped inside a shell of stone, a body that allows
him to walk unaided on the ocean's floor or survive the crush of a
thousand tons of rubble in a collapsed mineshaft...but prevents him
from feeling the touch of a human hand. These stories of Concrete are
as rich and satisfying as any in comics: funny, heartbreaking, and
singularly human.
