John DesPlaines Comic Reviews

The cover artwork and title are infinitely promising, but the title is unfortunately apropos. These whispers are really just mumbles.

That's all for now, kiddies. You best go back and start at #1, cuz that's what I'm about to do.

If you wanna see the big buff classic Kirby hero with the huge jaw, saving the world, this is a good one. I'd say it's a victory for Dynamite, and the artists who made it. Nice one, guys!

While nostalgia storytelling and the embrace of old forms work whenthey're done well (any Quentin Tarantino film) and tinkered with,MudMan just feels like a comic that actually came out 50 years ago.We've seen this before, and we've seen it since, often better, andless muddy.

One issue with the 1st issue is the language. Its well written but kinda tough to decipher sometimes. Takes a more attentive reading to digest it all, but you oughta be attentive anyway, reader. More fun that way, right?
