Being a big fan of the character I had high hopes for this series when it was announced. Fast forward a few months and the first issue arrives. Unfortunately it isn't very good.

What we get is a bland comic-by-numbers job that we've seen over and over again. Some include: A cameo from a more popular character, those same red necks that are in every comic/TV show/film harassing women before being beaten up and a murder mystery cliff hanger.

The art is good and is the main reason why my score is as high as it is but the writing is just so dull and boring. Even if you have a fairly simple and run-of-the-mill premise you can spice things up and create an engaging story with good scripting. Sadly that's not the case here and it would be best to save your money and spend it on a series that was worth more of your time.
