That's all you really need to know about this issue. I could rant and rant about the artwork because it is simply great. Allen looks athome on this series. Venditti has made this a series and character that you don't want to miss. If you're enjoying X-O Manowar or Ninjak, then go ahead and add Wrath of the Eternal Warrior to your reading list.

Still, Ive been harping on about getting aboard Valiants intricately crafted universe for a while now, so itd be safe to assume that a fair few of you have done so. With that, and the beautiful art, and the terrifically paced story that knows just when to hit you with the cliffhanger, and the beautifully weighted dialogue, and literally everything else about this book, I can do nothing but heartily recommend you get this book bought. Valiant and Vendetti have knocked it out the park once again. Read Full Review

Wrath of the Eternal Warrior offers plenty of surprises, the key being the book's unique focus. It's a slower debut, but one that ably crafts investment through its strong character play and gorgeous art.

Whether Wrath of the Eternal Warrior represents a return to battle or a denouement for one of Valiant's favorite heroes, it's a series (like so many others from the publisher) that promises to be unlike anything else on comics stands. Venditti, Allen, and Martin are crafting a hallucinatory experience that invites readers to experience each level of this legendary protectors life. Even if the direction is unclear, the journey is promising and it's advisable to stick close to Gilad as he walks beyond the veil of life. Read Full Review

Wrath of the Eternal Warrior #1 is a different take on an Eternal Warrior series, and while it isn't action-filled, it still manages to stand out from the other series as the best of the bunch. Venditti's approach adds more layers to a character mostly only known for fighting stuff, while Allen and Martin's art breathes new life into the character. This is a great debut that overcomes being somewhat slow and serves as a great introduction to the character for new readers. Read Full Review

Artist Raul Allen brings the tale to life as we begin this new series and new path for the Valiant hero. The artwork is clean and crisp, and showcases Gilad and his compatriots and enemies perfectly. My only complaint is that the story felt to fly by- maybe I just wanted to read more, to continue this story right now and not have to wait a month for issue #2. A small gripe to a great issue that sets up this series and gets us ready for a journey Gilad has never had to travel before. Nonetheless, this is a terrific start to the new series, and it is definitely worth picking up. Read Full Review

"Wrath of the Eternal Warrior" #1 provides a compelling and different look at Gilad Anni-Padda, yet one that's distantly familiar and told from a unique artistic viewpoint. The questions -- and the way in which they're asked -- are plenty compelling, encouraging readers to stick with the series to find out the answers. Read Full Review

Wrath of the Eternal Warrior #1 is a great start to the series laying out an engrossing situation for Gilad that allows for intriguing character development and plenty of action. This issue wastes no time in picking up from the conclusion of the Book of Death series and makes a compelling case to be drawn into Gilad's world and learn more. The time he spends with his family makes him a more rounded character to start, and hopefully the overall situation is explained more in the coming issues. I've been of the mindset that Gilad would be great in his own series and this issue makes me feel this just might be it. Read Full Review

Wrath of the Eternal Warrior #1 is good. It's not exactly packed with action, but it's certainly setting the stage for some in the near future " it is the distant rumbling that signifies an oncoming storm. Except instead of thunder and lightning, readers can expect to get a downpour of action, emotional drama, and a whole lot of corpses. It's going to be a fun ride. Read Full Review

I'm in. The premise is great. Amazing warrior slowly gains more and more tactical and battle skill, dies, comes back, repeats process. This is a set-up issue so there's not much more than scene setting going on, but I can feel the backstory pushing at the margins and I'm interested in seeing this badass of epic proportions get out there and smash some skulls.

Eternal Warrior was always a bit of a favourite. Its good to see that he still carries over well into the next-but-same generation of the Valiant rebooted universe. The book is a great jumping on point for those who liked what they saw in Book of Death and guest star apparence in books such as Ivar, Time Walker. Read Full Review

Gilad the Eternal Warrior is shown here more as a family man. The warrior we see only briefly. We need to see the warrior step up and fight. Gilad does have a well illustrated and used battle axe. He can swing and cleave with it so you see how skilled he is in battle. Read Full Review

The artwork is nice and detailed. The red creatures and beasts are very interesting and have a real horror movie affect to them. The story is gripping. I'm curious to see how the dilemma, choosing between his family and his life as an immortal, plays out. Read Full Review

The Eternal Warrior begins his next journey trapped in the underworld with his family. He must fight against hordes demons and try to be a good father at home. The story doesn't give you much in terms of plot, but the promise of more to come does keep your interest. Unfortunately, the art suffers in this book, with bland looking people and set pieces. The art truly shines when the Eternal Warrior is hacking his way through hordes of demons in a mess of blood and gore. Pick up if you're an Eternal Warrior fan, otherwise give it a miss.
