About this deal

Immortal Keanun -- oh, wait, make that immortal Unute has spent thousands of years slaughtering people. And while the 36 retailer exclusive variants make for an impressive line up, including cover artists like J. I'm not saying there *are* such things in the story, but I *did* find it easier to get through this (it took me at least an hour) by assuming there's a bigger story to tell than "clawless Wolverine ravine-stomps every bipedal in existence". The main character, which is just Keanu Reeves as a comic character (I'm on board) set in the ancient past as the child of a tribes woman some sort of lightning god?

I mean, I watch a lot of junk movies and TV and listen to a lot of crap music because it makes me happy.Instead, it literally wasn't until the last page that I became interested in the character's history. I think a more realistic style would have won me over completely but as it stands it was a great, brutal read that I very much enjoyed. This is volume one, so it's mostly just about setting up the situation and introducing the characters. BRZRKR, Volume 1 wasn’t for me - it looks great, it’s easy to read, some of it is amusing, but it’s way too much gratuitously pointless action and not enough story.

Of course, while no one is going to say a Big Mac is better than an expensive steak, and yet, McDonalds stays busy every night. Boom's official description reads, "The lone survivor of Olos, a long-dead–once thriving–empire, tells a tale of B.

It took me only thirty minutes to get through this and there wasn’t a single second in which my interest was even slightly piqued except for when I literally reached the final panel on the final page.The story is fantastic and I was hooked immediately - our protagonist is a violent, unkillable man who wants to die. Following another commercially down period, Reeves made a successful comeback by playing the titular assassin in the John Wick film series, beginning in 2014. It doesn't help that the main character is immortal, making every violent encounter completely devoid of tension. Author of The Flying Friar, Holed Up, The Avengefuls, Doctor Who: Room With A Deja Vu, The Many Murders Of Miss Cranbourne, Chase Variant. came to be born is hilariously stupid too, though the caveman stuff in general didn’t do anything for me - I’m not a huge Conan the Barbarian fan, and that seems to be the audience for this part of the book.
