    Highly overrated. It wasn't that interesting or eventful. It had some fine Frank Castle characterization moments, but not enough for 6 issues. It probably would work better as a one-shot. It's great to see some real origin of Frank before Born and the team of Ennis/Parlov is great, but... Not their best work definitely. I think if you really love war stories, then you could like it more, than I did. But I want to believe there are much better war stories than this one.
