  The Comic Book Revue - Jay Mattson

  Resurrection Man #0also looks toward the (now nonexistent) future of the series. Who is the fishy-man who injects the first Mitch with tektites originally? How does Deathstroke's involvement with Mitch Shelley connect with his time with Team 7? How will Mitch make amends for the terrible crimes of his source material? Where does Kim Rebecki fit into all of this? And why is the Devil being set up to become a major character? Alas, it's highly unlikely any of these questions will ever be answered, unless Mitch joins the Justice League Dark or something. (Hint, hint, DC.) Read Full Review

  Abnett and Lanning never take "Resurrection Man" too seriously, and their offbeat humor further distinguishes this misfit fantasy/scifi/horror title. The "bad" guy gets the best lines, of course, as well as the final word. The demon is still unnamed at the end of "Resurrection Man," even though he is a cunning scene-stealer. His line, "Relax, woman. I just did a bit of demon-y magic stuff" made me laugh aloud, and "Resurrection Man" #0 ends on a perfect, lighthearted note, promising that it is "[Never Ever] The End."

  As finales go, this one is decent enough, and wraps up all of the series' loose ends, but it seems a little rushed and compressed. Read Full Review

  The best that can be said for Resurrection Man #0 is that it delivers a conclusive finish for the book while also setting the stage for bigger and better adventures in Shelley's life. Unfortunately, most of what distinguished the series in the first place is missing. Read Full Review

  As a zero issue this book failed to deliver a jumping on point for new readers. If anything it alienates new readers from a comic they might otherwise enjoy. If you are already reading the series and want to wrap up the current arc then by all means pick this up, otherwise stay far, far away. Read Full Review
