43rd




this is the manhattan guardian (based on simon/kirby's 1940s guardian) a news reporter-crime fighter character created by grant morrison for the seven soldiers which i just finished reading.

this series is fantastic, specially how its written and tied together. impressive!

the authors involved do a great job and really obviate morrison's capacity to write with such different registries (all characters are completely different, and the narrative styles used even seem from different periods)

some of them i wasn't very interested in as i flipped through the books in the store (cameron stewart, ryan sook, frazer irving), but after reading the book my opinion was polarized!

the only one that had caught my eye to begin with (simone bianchi) was the one that worst performed at a narrative level, but with beautiful style and visuals (go down in style)

but dont listen to me !

go read this!

now!
