It was a cool graphic novel. I picked it up used cos Vertigo seems like a good comics company and I was not disappointed. Interesting idea pretty well executed. I liked the art, even though it was extra dark and girtty (I realize it's a book about war) but the main character's motivations were a lit...
In the not-too-distant-future, a new civil war has erupted between the United States of America and the secessionist Free States Army. Both factions have declared the island of Manhattan a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), leaving those inside to fend for themselves. An intern with Liberty News Network, M...
Again, I'm not sure how this could possibly be considered anywhere near one of the best titles in Marvel NOW! Who is saying this? Avengers Arena is so unoriginal it is shocking. I cannot believe this title has any positive buzz surrounding it, because for an "original" title this is so disappointing...
Stany Zjednoczone trawione bratobójczą wojną. Młody reporter przypadkowo uwięziony w centrum tego piekła. I prawda która czeka na ujawnienie. Tak, świetny komiks, wielka szkoda, że pozostałe tomy nie zostały wydane po polsku. Wystarczyła chwila, żebym dał się porwać tej historii. Rynsztokowy, dosadn...
I liked the Sea Road and The Girl in the Ice best.
When American troops open fire on a peaceful protest, Matty Roth gets involved in the quest for the truth about what actually happened. Riccardo Burchielli's art is as bad as it usually is. There is a section drawn by Kristian Donaldson, who is not particularly good but at least doesn't sexualize ...
A barely disguised rant about Blackwater. Matty is so buff and hardcore! He has sex with teenaged Arabs! He stands up to torture for days! Everyone thinks he is the coolest thing ever! This is racist, sexist, Islamophobic trash, and it should never have been published. Brian Wood may mouth lib...
America is in the midst of a civil war, and New York City is a battle ground popularly called the DMZ. Matty, who grew up a privileged annoying richwhitestraightable guy, is still pretty privileged and annoying in the DMZ. The plot is weak and certainly not novel. The art is typical Vertigo--lots...
America is gripped by a vicious civil war between the United States and the Free States. NYC is caught in the middle, a perilous no-man's-land filled with ordinary citizens turned desperate survivors. Little information gets in or out of Manhattan (or the DMZ, as it's known), so a Pulitzer-winning...
