Re-Reading: X-O Manowar #50X

[xoken]

I thought we could do a book a day (that way people can read one every day or catch up on weekends), talk about it on its own, in the context of whats next, in regards to what expectations it creates and vote on how good it is. I don't have to be the one that posts everyday. If I miss a day or if someone wants to take over please do

For voting think of your single favourite comic book (not just VALIANT) as the benchmark - thats a 10 - and grade according to that.

Make sure to mention what you like'd about the book, what you didn't, what you wish they would have done, your favourite panels, lines of dialogue, little bits of trivia etc.

Ironic to re-read this issue and Magnus 3 at the same time. Pretty much the opposites of each-other. Here's a lot of postering and stupid fighting. The one theme we recognice is the old mantra "Aric manages well without the armor".

The art is nice, but the story and the battle are a let down. The writers are putting less and less substance into the characters. The book is like an Image title at this point.
