    Kicking Down The Door, Part 1; Burning Inside, Part 1 of 4 last edited by idontgetit on 12/05/22 07:27PM View full history

    Spinning out of August's "Red Circle" event from superstar writer J. Michael Straczynski comes the new ongoing adventures of the patriotic Shield and the mysterious man on the run, Inferno! Eric Trautmann (CHECKMATE) and Marco Rudy (FINAL CRISIS) take Lt. Joe Higgins, a.k.a. The Shield, into the hotspots civilians dare not go. His first mission takes The Shield to the razed country of Bialya, destroyed by the rage of Black Adam in 52. Something lurks in the mountains beyond militia activity, and The Shield must investigate!

    Plus, Inferno stars in a fast-paced co-feature from writer Brandon Jerwa (G.I. Joe) and artist Greg Scott (GOTHAM CENTRAL)! Who is Inferno, and why is he being pursued by the Dark Men? He'd better find out fast because Green Arrow and Black Canary have questions of their own for the new hero!

    This was a fun issue with some really good art and a very nice cover. It takes the whole super hero thing and gives it a new direction I enjoyed this issue and would easily recommend this who is looking to try something new in comics. I do however have some problems with this issue because it suffers from what I like to call frist issue syndrome which is when there is a little to much  dialog to get the reader to know the character but it is done well and does not fell as bad as some other books...

    I rarely give a comic a bad score, i feel i normally find the good in most of them This is one where i really can not find much good in Unluckily i picked up both this and the second one off word of mouth, hopefully the second one is better   This story really just grinds my gears, mostly for having a man dressed in an american flag suit. Not only is he in this suit, also, bashes at the American Government are made everywhere  I'm American i get it, we do some bad stuff, some real bad stuff, but...
