With more laugh a minute gags, and some really high energy looking art and more 80s action movie references you can't go wrong with Amerikarate. If you're a fan of 80s cheese, gag a minute writing, and high energy action then you owe it to yourself to pick this issue up. Read Full Review
While I appreciate the attempt, I'm bowing out on this issue. Amerikarate is practically catered to my demographic and yet it's just not working. There's more homage than story, but the reason all the movies referenced are memorable was because of their story.
