Summary: Super Villain Who Wins!
Review: If you ever wanted to read a comic book that focused on the Super Villain then this is the one for you.

Golgoth is a somewhat tragic and complex character who is the type of super villain that Lex Luthor and Dr. Doom dream about being. He's a very successful conqueror and having to deal with that success, and the costs it extracts from him. He's come a long way and he's had to make some sacrifices to do so.

Highly recommended for anyone who cringes at the stupid mistakes comic book villains make, or at the inevitable return to the status quo usually required of long standing series where the "hero" is the main character. That's pretty much the opposite of this character.

I like that Golgoth comes across somewhat like a real person who seems to wear his mask at times to help him hide the emotions of dealing with what his intellect has told him he must do, even when in his heart he'd rather not do it.
