As a whole, the comics are a direct port from the first and second installments in the video game series. If you are new to MGS, then this would be a great place to start.

Many of the memorable moments within the games also feel refreshing. The epic battle between Liquid and Solid, the theft of Metal Gear Ray, and the final stand made by a hairy pitted woman known as Olga. It was fun to experience it all again. Overall, this is a great read. The unique plot of MGS still Read Full Review
