Caught between the ruins of the human militia and the rise of the Animilitary, the Bloodhound Sandor and his human daughter Jesse encounter unlikely allies and cunning traitors, but are haunted by the horrors that brought them here...
Animosity 3 is yet another stellar issue in a book that should be at the top of everyones pull list. The art is spectacular, the story powerful, the lettering sublime and editorial choices (big props to Aftershock founder and former Marvel editor Mike Marts for lending his skills to this story) daring. The crown jewel of Aftershock continues to shine like a diamond, and by God, that Harambe variant by Mike Rooth defies reason in its absolute dominance. I must have it. Read Full Review
Ive fallen hard for Animosity this issue, Im completely invested in Jessie and Sandor now. This wonderful creation of Marguerite is starting to take on a life of its own and is chock full of promise. The Jessie/Sandor dynamic does remind me somewhat of early Walking Dead with Rick trying to protect Carl from the inevitability of their world, and I feel very much the same applies here. I know that ultimately this is not going to be an easy journey and itll be heart-breaking watching Jessie change, having to adapt to the violence of this world (so far Sandor has managed to shield her, but that can only last so long, right)? I also get a bit of a DMZ vibe from Animosity, and in truth those are two helluva good stories to take influence from. Go and buy this issue, fall in love with Jessie and Sandor like I did, and I promise you will not regret it. Not one bit. Read Full Review
Considering the immense role animals play is this story, I would expect slightly better animal drawing from the artist, it's not on par with the human figure drawing. The art is still pretty good nonetheless. The story is rather charming before it takes a dark turn for the cliffhanger.
The first issue was good, but kind of hated the second. It was all over the place. Almost dopped it, but glad I didn't. I really liked this. Hope this issue is a sign of things to come. Also, I just want to point out that Deer has grenades hanging from it's antlers and that koala looks like he's not about to start taking shit from anyone.
