This image is getting to be a familiar sight on CRIVENS!, but hey - what a belter, right? I only bought the first ish of the regular 2015 DYNAMITE comic because of ALEX ROSS's 'homage' to JOE KUBERT's original 1975 DC COMICS cover, but I recently acquired the collected edition of the six-part series and it was a nice little read. I felt I'd just picked up from where I'd left off back in the '70s when I was a teenager.
There's a couple of instances where the letterer has skipped a word, which requires re-reading to catch the meaning, and the art has some minor problems where cars (very nicely rendered) and people aren't always proportionate size-wise, but all-in-all, if you're a fan of pulp heroes in general and The AVENGER in particular, then you'll enjoy this softcover volume.
Check out your local comicbook store, where you're sure to find a copy of this book sitting on the shelves. Remember to pay for it before you leave though, as it's always embarrassing being rugby-tackled on your way out the door when you've forgotten to hand over your cash. I wonder how long it'll be 'til HOLLYWOOD sees the potential in this property for a big-budget movie? We'll just have to wait and see.
Incidentally, I'd put a clear protective cover on the book not long before scanning, which slightly reflects the scanner's light. Hopefully, it doesn't impair your visual enjoyment, but I wasn't going to risk damaging the book by taking it off and putting it on again. (I knew you'd understand.)
