Right Way To Take A Steam Bath

COMIC: "The Amazing Werewolf" by Robert Kirkman

Normally when you start to write about a new character, it has tended to imitate classic characters (how many versions there are of Superman?). In "Marvel" is not common to create new heroes and the DC, each new hero spoofs an old one. The third wheel, "Image", has gotten through Robert Kirkman, this pattern is broken.
"Image" is an editorial that would have been forgotten if not for the arrival of the author and the publication of "The Walking Dead" and "Invincible." Together these two collections, made a very interesting proposal which closed at 25, "The Amazing Werewolf."

The idea of \u200b\u200bthe collection is very simple, Gary Hampton is a multimillionaire, married with a daughter who is bitten by a werewolf. After being hospitalized, he wakes up with his wounds healed and every night it turns into werewolf. With the help of Zechariah, a vampire redeemed, learn to control the wolf and to use their power to help people.
the first ten numbers, the picture is created, and after the first series, there's a twist of events that turns the situation of the protagonist and he confronts his inner demons.

The library has several intersections with "Invincible", and not just encounters with the character, if not many characters come and go between each series shows the cohesion of the universe "Image" which is making Kirkman .

The series is not that it is no masterpiece, but it certainly is fun and keeps you wanting to hit the comic know how it ends. If something I like about this writer is not overly recreates the battles and all that although we read in a flash splash, think short and long term, so in many things happen every comic, but leaves open subplots. As in "Invincible", the plots are resolved quickly.

Anyway, if you want a quick read, fun and plenty where things happen, do not stop reading this collection is complete and that creates a superhero unusual.
