"DESTROYER," Part Three
Mont St Michel is on the brink of annihilation. Riley Barnes is in the hands of the enemy. Gloria West is on the verge of death. All of it's Glory's fault and only her friends can stop her. All this plus the face smashing introduction to the newest, most deadliest member of the Extreme universe!
Glory is an interesting character. She exists as an antithesis to typical superhero ladies. This is no exercise in T&A. This book doesn't pander to the clich comic buying crowds by serving up cheesecake on a silver platter. It's about time, comics. It's about time. But all in all, crazy sci-fi, enough strong female characters to pass the Bechdel test a thousand times and intense, psychedelica-infused artwork; what's not to love? Glory is definitely flying under the radar but Joe Keatinge and company are creating something special that is both brutal and beautiful. It's brutiful. Yeah, let's go with that. Read Full Review
In short, Glory #28 shows all the strengths of the title, taking its rich, unique setting and making the most through stunning visuals. If you don't mind being a little confused, new readers are sure to find lots to love. Read Full Review
The only real complaint I have about "Glory" #28 is that it's not a great place to sample the series for the first time, as it's right smack in the middle of a big storyline that's been moving ever since Keatinge and Campbell first re-launched the title. If you don't mind jumping into the middle, though, do take a look. This book (along with "Prophet") has turned out to be far more entertaining than I think anyone could have imagined. It's big and crazy, but equally capable of quiet and intimate moments. Good stuff. Read Full Review
By the time the battle is over, every member of the army opposing Glory is dead. There are more to come, however, Glory knows this. She suggests leaving the island, now that they can no longer hide there in secrecy. She also suggests building a force great enough to ght her rivals off. She wants to build the toughest, most unmerciful team she can. And that means nding the toughest, most unmerciful being she can nd. Wait til you see who it is! I have a feeling this series is about to get a whole lot more interesting (that means more blood! weee!) Read Full Review
