Grendel: War Child

Summary: Sweeping
Review: Another epic tale by Matt Wagner. This is the only one I felt came close to the glory of the Hunter Rose stories. (In the back of the Mage: The Hero Discovered books)This one has it all. This Grendel is a perfect warrior with flawed masters....beautifully balanced

Summary: It got me hooked
Review: Grendel: War Child tells us the story of a alternative world were ONE emperor is ruler over the entire world (called) Grendel Kahn. Unfortunately the Grendel Kahn just passed away so the entire world is out for power and possession. The only one who is in the way of the wife of the passed away Grendel Kahn becoming supreme ruler is his son. So it's essential to get this son to safety away from his mother to grow up and rise the throne when he's ready for it. Only the way to safety is long and dangerous in a world where everybody is out for his head. This particular trade got me hooked on the Grendel Legacy and I can advise people who are into Fantasy/Mad Maxx/Waterworld to get this trade without a doubt. It's well worth your money both qualitywise as quantitywise (there are 10 issues in here).

Summary: Without sounding trite, it's Mad Max meets the Terminator.
Review: Matt Wagner is one of the best storytellers in the modern age of comics and his Grendel series has made huge strides in pushing the envelope and changing the face of comicbooks forever. Grendel:Warchild is a extremely violent, apopcalyptic look at future world peopled with fanatical warriors, blood thirsty vampires and an unstopable cyborg paladin charged with protecting the savior of and heir to the world conquering Grendel Khan.

Summary: Adventure! Excitement! Grendel! It's all here!!!!
Review: This is a must for anyone who loves a good adventure story, sci-fi or otherwise! And for the Grendel followers, a DEFINITE MUST READ if not OWN!!! I love what this book did with the story and image of the dark hero, and how past enemies were incorporated into the picture! Can't say enough without giving it all away- except "make more!!!!!" Vivat Grendel!!!!!
