Rating: 5 stars
Summary: True Hero
Review: Savage Dragon is a piece of comic art and an under appreciated gem that came out in the early 90's. Overshadowed by it's distinguished sibling Spawn from the same company, this diamond in the rubble had some of the finest uncomplicated action and adventure than any of it's superhero competition. Critics have passed up the Dragon as a Hulk knock off but leave it up to it's creator, writer, and penciller to prove them all otherwise. Savage Dragon, filled with humor and surprises, is one of the most original heros of that decade and sure to be highly entertaining to all superhero fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the most brilliant comic book heroes of the 1990's.
Review: Well, first of all, it should be noted that the only similarity that Dragon has with the Hulk is green skin. And it should also be noted that the Hulk's visual was initially ripped-off from Frankenstein's. So, Dragon is pretty much original. The powers, personality, and others stuff is totally original.

And this book is pretty darned good.

It features a lone warrior cop waking up an amnesiac and being the city of Chicago's only hope against a crime organization with total power over the city. He struggles against terrible odds and watches those he loves die around him. Featuring a very human character, Savage Dragon is a book not to be missed by true superhero fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best comic book on the market
Review: While Marvel is shifting their focus to darker stories, Erik Larsen has done the exact opposite, filling his world with brightly colored, mature, yet all ages appropriate stories. This is where the series starts, and it's an excellent TPB to have in your collection.
