Hot off of the best-selling The Punisher and Black Widow comics from Marvel, Nathan Edmondson brings you another issue of the thrilling series, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Echoes. The trail of terror leads to a cruise liner off the coast of Barcelona, but nothing makes sense to Sam and Paladin, who must take another step into the darkness around the mysterious and deadly group. But first, Sam will have to seek the help of a powerful friend-one of the only friends he still has. What started as a simple favor is quickly turning into a global battle for the operative who thought he was out of the game!
The art by Marc Laming is outstanding, giving this issue an intense and gritty appearance. His ink work and rough shading really allows definition within the characters, allowing expressions to be more dynamic. The vivid color work by Ian Herring makes the issue a complete work with Lamings art. I did enjoy the cover art by Laming as well, which really captures the black-ops stealth and suspense elements. Splinter Cell: Echoes is an intense thriller proving both exciting and mysterious, and very well recommended. Read Full Review

Like I said there are a lot of little moments peppered throughout Splinter Cell Echoes that suggest that the writers do have a more ambitious story they want to tell than just another installment in the old guy action espionage genre I just wish they'd drop the Tom Clancy backwash and get more ambitious with the plot they're coating their dramatic core in, bottom line is that they can do better.
