Luther versus.....Jack the Ripper?!
Justin Jordan and Tradd Moore are a perfect team I recommend highly that everyone (Mature readers) pick this series up. Read Full Review
In the end the fight has no real resolution but with Luther Strode it's merely a chance for us to catch our breath before the next issue. The Legend of Luther Strode is a non-stop thrill ride and mostly overlooked among Jordan's other work but should be a staple for fans of hardcore heroes. Read Full Review
See that’s it short and sweet but never dull. The Legend of Luther Stone continues to tear through everything commanding its high marks and deserving every bit of it! Read Full Review
Artist Trad Moore has been upping the ante with every issue and The Legend of Luther Strode #4 is no exception. Although the mid-fight dialogue leaves something to be desired, Moore's art is more than enough to keep your eyes glued to the page as his figures stretch -- and occasionally downright violate -- the limits of physics as they careen across panels. Likewise Felipe Sobreiro's colors are almost violent in their intensity, a perfect match for Moore's kinetic visuals. Read Full Review
Writer Justin Jordan admirably rides shotgun for this issue as he doesn't try to muddle the issue with any scenes of exposition or heavy dialogue. Jordan himself has admitted to readers in the back pages of issue #3 that The Legend is much more of an action book than The Strange Talent, and is respectively working within those genre boundaries. While the issue is visually alive with hyper-violence, it's a big departure from Jordan's usual style of writing and this issue definitely totes a vapid line for it's characters. The stakes seem very minimal for Luther and watching invincible titans go at each other's throats can only be cool for so long. Read Full Review
"The Legend of Luther Strode" #4 is a comic that shows us a story in transition. Will it draw new readers in in the way that the original mini-series did? Honestly, I don't think so. It's not quite the gateway "you must read this" comic as the first time around. For those who are reading, though, I think this is ultimately going to prove to be quite satisfying once everything wraps up. Read Full Review
__ $3.50, 22pgs.+7pgs.backmatter; NO ADs! ___ I continue to be spellbound by the blood and violence as Tradd continues Luthor's bloodfest. A always a quick read, which focuses on the stars of blood, gore and action. But still so packed with details, its wortht he extra 50cents after the second viewing. Hilarious backup strip from Yale Stewart and several pin-ups, my favorite so far being MeatOvision Petra boldly on the back cover by Chris Thornly! Great creepy cover marred by too much title!
