The art by EJ Su is very good. The book tries to weave humor in and is largely successful. EJ is great at sight gags and facial expressions. Not sure where the story is going, but that's ok. It has kept me coming back.
Blood & Thunder #5
Blood & Thunder must uncover the truth behind events on the planet Malleus IX. Unfortunately, they're not alone...
Love the art and the depiction of certain characters, like Wonder Woman and Adam Strange, but after 9 issues this story has gone almost nowhere.
