"THE NEXT CHAPTER"
Malcolm Dragon joins Special Operations Strikeforce and makes the move to San Francisco. A new adventure begins here: A new town, new friends, and new foes! Get in on the ground level of a whole new chapter in the life of the Savage Dragon and family. Another outstanding achievement from award-winning writer/artist ERIK LARSEN.
Larsens art is great and does a wonderful job of creating a sense of space, environment and scope. The city scenes look amazing and the final page has some harsh visual reality to it. Read Full Review
To a degree, it feels like Larsen is simply hanging out with a group of people that he truly loves. One does not work on a single project for 30 years straight without gaining a very deep love for everyone involved, and Larsen is clearly having fun with it, but he doesnt exactly need to work terribly hard to sell a series thats been running for as long as Savage Dragon. So its really no problem for him to spend an entire issue focusing exclusively on the decision to move across the continent. On one level, Savage Dragon is a perfectly social and casual experience. On another level, its actually kind of weird to see an entire issue focused so narrowly on...a move. Read Full Review

It's a big change for the Dragon family, and the effectiveness of the family discussions and difficulties they're facing is undercut somewhat by the cover announcing what is about to happen. Read Full Review
