Reviews

This series deserves more attention, and this over-sized anniversary issue is a great place to start reading it. Of course, any issue is a good jump-on point, as they're all "done in one" tales. Not only is the main story pretty neat, the introduction of the upcoming Howling Commandos book was good enough that it made me order more of the upcoming first issue. All that and a reprint of the first shield story makes this book well worth the cover price.
