After he fends off an alien invasion, Thomas Bruin goes from a nobody security guard to Earth's greatest hero! He's got a supercharged launchpad and no ceiling. Bruin rises from celebrity to congress, then to the head of the planet's first orbital security force. He's married into one of the country's most powerful political families, he's surfing a wave of endorsements, and he's the very symbol of human resilience. So why is Bruin nervous? Because only he knows his great victory is a lie. When the aliens return to Earth, stronger than ever, Bruin has no choice but to be the hero he's fooled the whole world into thinking he is...or die trying more

    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff Oct 22, 2025

    Anyone who has ever worked third shift security in a warehouse space knows what a restless experience it can be. Invariably you're going to have thoughts and hallucinations about the possibility of something really happening. It's fun to see Orlando and Company coming up with an actual situation under these circumstances to open a series about a normal guy who will evidently lead a whole bunch of other normal people in defending off an alien invasion. Sounds like a fun idea. Read Full Review

    Capes & Tights - Justin Soderberg Sep 18, 2025

    War Wolf is a great new sci-fi dark humor romp, showcasing Steve Orlando and Marco Perugini at the top of their game. The premiere issue lays an excellent foundation for what's to come: plenty of twisted laughs, high-energy battles, and a wild ride that makes for a seriously fun read. Read Full Review

    Graphic Policy - Brett Oct 22, 2025

    War Wolf #1 is a fun debut that sets things up well with a story that feels a little Mars Attacks. It'll be interesting to see where it all goes from here and what Orlando focuses on as far as the narrative goes. But, it's solid sci-fi comedy that shows a lot of promise and well worth checking out. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Theron Couch Oct 20, 2025

    The shift in tone between War Wolf #1s opening pages and its latter two-thirds is so extreme that the comic could easily stumble and not work. And yet the blend of the almost-serious and the near-ridiculous succeeds. Tommy is a character thats easy to connect with and fun to root for. War Wolf #1 is great for anyone interested in a less than serious action romp. Read Full Review
