strider1992's Lazarus #1 - Family, Part One review

    Awesome!

    The Good:

    This is one of the best beginnings to an ongoing i've read. It just thrust you straight into the dark dystopian world that is the Lazarus Universe. Rucka and Lark have created the perfect balance between story and action. The art courtesy of Mr. Lark is gorgeous and fits the style of series down to the ground. I have tried a lot of female lead books and few (with the exception of Aphrodite IX) have been able to hold my interest this one however has succeeded where even Wonder Woman failed. I am hooked on this and if Rucka and Lark keep up this caliber of work then i'll be ecstatic and my wallet will have to be stretched to accommodate this awesome title.

    The Bad:

    Nothing........for once I have nothing negative to say.......

    Conclusion:

    If you have the spare money buy this issue! You will not be disappointed!

      The Subtle Dystopia 0

      I throw around words like 'God Class' and 'Deities' all the time when I talk about writers like Nick Spencer and Scott Snyder, and Greg Rucka SHOULD belong in that category, but he's not. He's in an odd tangental class all of his own, with equal respect from me. It's clear that his roots are deep as a novelist, yet one of his most distinct traits is a mastery of minimalism when it has the most effect. Rucka can tell some of the most intense stories without dialogue. His Punisher run was a work ...

      Lazarus is one tough cookie 0

      The world of comics has been missing the wonderfully edgy creations of writer Greg Rucka since his final five issue wrap-up of Punisher: War Zone. Now he’s back with all the grit and toughness Rucka is known for bringing to his stories and characters.Lazarus is the story of a future where the world is no longer divided by political or geographic lines but rather financial ones. This is the 1% on steroids and each family has a protector called a Lazarus. The Carlyle’s protector is named Forever.F...
