BONUS REVIEW by Shanna Berry - Edgewater
This series is EXPLOSIVE! Open the first page and drop into the most mysteriously suspenseful thing you've read all year! Mark Waid has contributed to some of the best super-hero stories ever – and his reign continues. Fans of darker super-hero stories (such as Watchmen, Identity Crisis, or Superman: Red Son) will enjoy this story of an over-worshiped, all-powerful, team-leading supe who snaps and begins hunting his fellow teammates. The brutality of the attacks is literally jaw dropping, and one question remains: Why? This series is extremely dynamic, with an intense beginning, face-smacking reveals, powerful characters, and a sidekick’s heart-breaking betrayal. Read it best in collected tradepaperback for superb pacing. Each trade being released as fast as new ipods on top of being 10 bucks makes this trade paperback a must buy now!
I give it 9 out of 10 Grahams
*Don't forget to pick up INCORRUPTIBLE, the companion series that follows former super-criminal Max Damage and side-kick Jailbait, changing their ways in the wake of the Plutonian rampage.
