AN ALL-NEW JUMPING-ON POINT! A TIE-IN TO HARBINGER WARS 2...?
"KLANG, KLANG...KLUNK?" In the ultimate display of power, Livewire has plunged the United States into darkness. From coast to coast, once-vital technology has now been rendered worthless... No cars... No phones... No quantum bands?!? Without the high-tech gauntlets that bind them together, the world's worst superhero team have 24 hours before they disintegrate into nothingness...
Now, stripped of their powers and unable to "klang," can Quantum and Woody become the heroes they've always aspired to be and secure the streets of the nation's capital...before time runs out?

    Writer Eliot Rahal takes over from Daniel Kibblesmith and delivers an emotionally effective and high-stakes jumping-on point with a cliffhanger that will propel the arc forward into new territory. Read Full Review

    Comics Bookcase - Zack Quaintance May 29, 2018

    Despite being six issues into a run and billed as a tie-in to Valiant's big summer event, this issue of Quantum and Woody! stands well on its own as a simple but surprisingly emotional tale of self-sacrifice and heroism. Read Full Review

    This series often flies under the radar, but it's always entertaining, with strong art and story by Francis Portela and Eliot Rahal (respectively) and well worth checking out. Read Full Review

    Moving away from the trip down memory lane, I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this comic. Rahal comes out of the gate swinging, Francis Portella, Andrew Dalhouse and Dave Sharpe produce a wonderful visual experience, and Valiant once again have a brilliant comic on the racks.That the comic is also an ideal jumping on point for new readers is also a bonus.

    Bleeding Cool - Joshua Davison May 31, 2018

    Quantum + Woody #6 is a great read, showing how this book can handle a more serious tone. While it doesnt have the humor of prior issues, its nice to be reminded that your superhero comedy duo is indeed human. Plus, as an implicit tie-in to Harbinger Wars II, it shows the weight of whats going down while the gods fight. This one definitely earns a recommendation. Give it a read. Read Full Review

    Again, I didn't hate this issue. I honestly didn't. I liked what was presented, even though it wasn't what I was expecting or wanting. I do not doubt that Eliot Rahal and crew can bring the funny back to the table in future installments. At least, I hope they can. On the plus, we were left with a pretty big cliffhanger at the end, so there's at least to go on. Read Full Review

    At first I was a little disappointed by this story. A transitional issue not in link with the last arc. But I really enjoyed it. And the ending was very surprising.

    Cover - Related & nice 2/2
    Writing - Well that was a hell of transitional issue. 3/3
    Arts - Love the art the splash with quantum & woody separated is just marvelous. 3/3
    Feeling - Disappointed at first, but so much love when closing the issue. 2/2

    This ties in to Harbinger Wars II, but I didn't read that and you don't have to either to enjoy this issue. It's essentially a done-in-one story to show us Q&W without powers. Turns out it doesn't make much different.
