Street Fighter (Street Fighter)

Rating:
Summary: Buy the comics instead
Review: I'm completely upset by this trade. I only bought it for the "good" art from guest artists on the backup storties that are NOT INCLUDED. The book is in a poser manga style 8"x6" format. Alvin Lee's art is lack luster, unimaginative and 100% sweatshoped art. Buy this book if you want a small fanzine from a group inexperienced kids from Canada making faux anime screenshots.

Summary: if you wanted the extras... tough!
Review: In every street fighter comic they have released you get extras like the prequel where ryu fights sagat in this all you get is the story and that is just damn upsetting. udon if ur gonna publish these comics give us everything dont crop it. u never change the orignal. your better off looking for all the comics on ebay or something cause this book isnt what die hard fans want.

Summary: Udon wants your money
Review: Udon releases the single Street Fighter comics with back-up stories, multiple covers, comic strips, photo sessions... Then, they release the trade collection (only one month after the comic arc is completed!), but without any of the extras (the back-up stories are directly related to the main plot, so you WILL be missing information by reading the trades)!

They basically release the trade as fast as possible, but with the smallest size, the minimum content they could, just to "get" the trade fans (with the small price - due to the cut corners). At ther same time, they release the monthly comic with the alternate covers and extras to force the readers to collect the singles too (you can't get the complete thing with only the trades). That's really sad.

Worst of all, the story suffers from multiple artists in every issue. In one page Chun-li looks like a cute girl, in the next she'll look like a man, then an old woman! Their artists can't even do 20 straight pages!
