Chapter Four: "FINE YOUNG KNIVES"
I mentioned before that Violent Love is on my list of favourite comics, and this issue hasnt let me down. I am enjoying the injection of new characters and story development and cant wait to see where it will take us. Read Full Review
Expert writing matched up with ideal art is the best formula for any comic, but in a book about criminals and relationships its imperative that each step is taken with care. Have no fear, because Violent Love #4 continues to uphold the quality of this series while promising to keep us engaged in subsequent issues. Although you should definitely be reading along, this fourth issue wouldnt be a bad jumping-on point if you wanted to test the waters before committing. Be warned, though, youll be clamoring for back issues in no time. Read Full Review
I liked this issue. There are a few interesting visual pages here, such as the one in which Rock flashes back to Vietnam, and Daisy flashes back to the death of her father. I liked the interplay between them here, and the two young girl killers (as in young girl assassins) brought something to the book. The ending also sets up a hopefully exciting end to this first arc. I just don't know if I like the narrative framework of an ex detective telling this tale to a small kid. It's not really working for me.
