Heroes Reborn: Hyperion & The Imperial Guard #1

This event continues to surprise along with the tie-ins. Simply put HEROES REBORN: HYPERION AND THE IMPERIAL GUARD #1 is no different. As a MARVEL COMICS fan completely submerged in multiple titles, its fascinating to see the intricate nuisance and backstories of characters within the HEROES REBORN universe. So far, the biggest item of frustration is wanting more stories about both Hyperion and the Starjammers. I want to read Starjammers #1 and wish it was a real issue! Readers, I cant begin to tell you the last time I liked an event down to the tie-ins" THE TIE-INS for Petes Peppers! I know it may be a hefty toll on your wallets, but I really enjoyed this tie-in as well and think you should give it a shot. What an excellent job by Cady and his team across the board.

Hyperion and the Imperial Squad is a consciously retro book that delivers fun teen drama ... in space! Read Full Review

Heroes Reborn: Hyperion & The Imperial Guard#1 is a great example of a trend in Marvel event comics that shows that creative teams like the ones involved here can deliver one-shots with strong emotional gravitas through good emotive writing, complemented by excellent art to deliver engaging and fun stories that can draw anyone in even those of us not emotionally attached to the characters the stories revolve around.

Hyperion and the Imperial Guard #1 brings a unique tale from another timeline. The characters are well delivered, and the creative team does an excellent job establishing them despite the limited amount of time. Read Full Review

This issue gives us a borderline satirical work into why Hyperion is the way he is. A fun comic that shines a light on the main Heroes Reborn title. Read Full Review

Granted, this isn't necessary reading, at least at this juncture of Heroes Reborn, but I wound up really enjoying my time with these characters, and if you're a fan of the line up you will likely end up enjoying your time here just like I did. Read Full Review

I don't have the time to write some kind of in-depth review but I loved this book from tip to stern. I would totally read a 12 issue elseworld about the Starjammers story from the backup and I would also read the previous "120 issues" of Hyperion & The Imperial Guard. Hope to see more from Ryan Cady at Marvel. Bandini and Byrne did a kick-a** job on art too.

Teen Hyperion's last adventure with the Shi'ar Imperial Guard. It's an interesting sort of retro: Allegedly published in 1992. It's actually a very late-80s kind of story, but told with modern storytelling techniques. I admit I prefer this approach rather than trying to replicate the more irritating stylistic features of the time. And the Starjammers B-strip is the icing on the cake: Pure continuity porn for a continuity that never existed. The art is good throughout, the writing is decent. The stories are rather formulaic, but the meta-historical approach is fascinating.

It's OK. Writing is competent & has good tension but the story lacks impact. Its pacing is rushed & it being a one-shot takes away the stakes in my eyes. Starjammers backup is fun but, once again, rushed.

I want to like this more. I liked all the meta stuff in this issue. I didn't so much like the story... which was boring.

I was bored on the info page and I was bored throughout and I'm still bored now. I may never stop.
