The Ravagers #6 Review

Cover - 4/5

- Would I pick-up the comic based on the cover alone? Are the alternate covers appealing? Does the cover portray what happens in the issue?

Art - 5/5

- Do I personally like this artist's style? Does the artist stay true to the characters appearance?

Color/Ink - 5/5

- Does the work blend well with the artist? Is the coloring/inking enjoyable and easy to distinguish what's happening?

Layout - 5/5

- Does the layout of the issue make it easy to read? Does the issue have a good flow of the plot and keep me engaged?

Story - 4/5

- Weighted Triple. How well did the issue further develop the current story arc? How well did the issue further develop the characters?

Verdict - 4.6

- What I think: I'm not sure about this cover, while seeing Superboy destroy stuff is always a attention grab, the tagline along with the events don't exactly happen as such. I enjoy the art and overall look of the book. I did however have an issue with continuity as I did with Superboy #14 - The Face of H'el and Legion Lost #14 - Desperate Times in the fact that I would assume these events take place first. The issue is compounded by the fact that it is mentioned in Legion Lost that Terra and Thunder are healing, and this issue wasn't a one-off story but will continue next week. With that said I really enjoyed the issue. We get to see some character development. First we find the Ravagers training to use their powers, but it seems the only one capable of handling themselves is the weapon designed to take them out (Superboy). We also discover that Tim Drake has a stake in what happens to the Ravagers. The Ravagers eventually take a break and visit Venice Beach, but soon comes to a halt when word comes that a little girl with Metahuman abilities is being sought by N.O.W.H.E.R.E.. The Ravagers rush to her rescue only to be stopped by two new Ravagers in training Bright Eyes and Windshear. Superboy could probably take them out solo, but Caitlin Fairchild order him to stop, and let the rest of the team handle it. They overcome only to be confronted by their teachers Rose Wilson, Warblade, and Leash. Can't wait to see the next issue and find out what happens to Terra and Thunder (now that Legion let it out they get seriously injured).

Ravagers #6 ReviewOverview:The team bonds at the beach after some training before going on their first mission.The Good:This issue focuses a lot on the interpersonal relations that the team has and it might not be ground breaking but it moves the series forward. Seeing into how the team thinks and acts is nice, they all went through the same thing and are wary of outsiders, namely Superboy and Fairchild. Seeing them work as a team and even to relax on the beach is also really nice in a full circ...

The cover for this issue is a horrendous mess. It's kind of like this week's Team 7 cover, but on a whole other level. For starters, Superboy's face is incredibly awkward and blocky, and then there's just so much going on all on the same level it just blurs together into a swamp of confusion. There's so much use of the same colors, and thick black lines it's hard to tell what's going on in half the cover. It's just ugly.Luckily the interior art doesn't suffer from the same problem. We've got Ian...
