I have really enjoyed the Losers this past story. It’s nice to finally learn the origin of the team. It’s been a very dark and gritty road, but it was needed to learn how they were “killed” and how they returned. I really wish this book was more popular.
I kind of feel bad about writing this review though. I have literally nothing to say about it. I mean, I wrote a review for the book 2 months ago, and I can just say the same thing. The book is cool, more people should be reading it. It’s an action movie in comic book form. It’s the A-Team for comics. But other than all those obvious statements, I have nothing to add.
Every month this book is a treat. It’s a lower profile book, so it’s not like I read about it a whole lot on the websites. So when I find an issue, it’s always a pleasant surprise. Like, “oh yeah, I love that book…yay.”
But now that the origin story is done with, I’m really looking forward to where it goes from here. Like most Vertigo books, the story is told through arcs of four or five issues. But now 19 issues in, we’ve been treated to an epic tale that will hopefully be going for a while. Each issue and each arc builds off the last one perfectly.
Once again, sorry I can’t say anything new about the book this month. It’s totally worth the money, because it gets better every month.
