In this action-packed adventure set in the universe of The Resistance, Gregg Hurwitz (Legends of the Dark Knight, Vengeance of Moon Knight), Mark Texeira (Ghost Rider, Wolverine), and Brain Reber (X-Men: Legacy, Spiderintroduce a masked vigilante for the 21st Century. Bob Ryder is a hapless bureaucrat whose bad luck streak comes to a crescendo when he accidentally kills the city's masked vigilante, The Knight. Oops. Now, Bob is forced to take on the mantle of the legendary hero before the city descends into chaos. Good thing he's got The Knight's former butler/assistant to show him the ropes.
The Santa Clause meets Batman by way of The Boys continues to be wild as hell but perhaps the biggest crutch that the series has is writer Gregg Hurwitz overloading each page with text. Read Full Review
Boy do I enjoy this comic. It treads the line of being Alan Moorish but if Alan Moore was a funny guy doing funny comics. Its as if Miracleman or the parallel that the Watchman brought in critiquing the big two, were not as serious but was more or less funny. Thats not to say that this comic is a joke book. NO way. Its a good story and a compelling one at that. But it embraces humor and it makes it a fun comic to read. Great issue. Lets keep it up and read more from this creative team and publisher! AWA has been on fire!
I really like Knighted. But in this issue I was shocked how ugly the faces are drawn.
I opened issue #1 again, because back then nothing bothered me.
All in all I liked #1 far more. I already have all 5 issues, because after discovering Knighted Cover #1 and reading the first issue it was clear that I will read the complete volume.
I hope I don't mind how the faces are drawn in the upcoming issues, because I really like Knighted and I'm curious to see what happens next.
