It seems inevitable that No Hero is going to be held up to the high standard of Ellis and Ryps previous mini-series, Black Summer and the series cant help but suffer in comparison. The characters of No Hero havent been as memorable or as well established, the ideas havent been quite as revolutionary, original, or thought-provoking, and the plot hasnt lent itself to exciting visual storytelling to quite the same degree that the central premise of Black Summer did. In its own right, however, this has been an enjoyable enough cynical superhero miniseries that might have neglected a deep exploration of its central ideas in favour of action and intrigue, but has remained very readable nonetheless.
