Great introduction to Erik Larsen's long-running creation. Great cast and even though the art is a bit uneven in parts it definitely sets things up well for the future. One funnybook you can get into on a lot of levels, full of humour, violence, sex and great character moments.
Start of the new series after the Baptism of Fire mini-series. Really enjoying this character. Need to read more.
Ok, il voto affettivo sarebbe 5/5 ma voglio cercare di essere oggettivo: meglio del primo volume ma è davvero ancora molto acerba come serie. Si va avanti perché so che migliora tantissimo, perché è Dragon e perché è Larsen. E non c’è altro da aggiungere.
Savage Dragon is a great little bit of 90s superhero history. It's kind of incredible to read with the context of Image comics just coming into its own, in mind. This volume is even further bolstered with nostalgia by an appearance by the TMNT. The quality of the stories themselves is shaky, with spotty pacing and some confusing action, but there's some great wit in here and its fun to boot. I almost wish the book was a little more satirical, but it walks the line well enough. There are some nea...
I enjoyed the original mini-series (and the Superman crossovers), but this was a bit of a let-down. It was dark, messy, violent and slutty. The whole super-team was lame. I'm glad they wrapped that up. Hopefully it rebounds and finds it's footing.
This book suffers from being a product of the nineties. The female costumes are god-awful. Unnecessary thong-costumes are kind of the worst. Story and characters are fun. The pace is a little strange, but overall enjoyable.
5/5 for Savage Dragon vol 2 by Erik Larsen.An excellent continuation of superfreak / supercop Savage Dragon, and his battles against Chicago's criminal underworld. This volume introduces lots of interesting villains and some wonderful allies, who would later become the fantastic Freak Force.Excellent art and story throughout. Highly recommended!
Man; I just remember these books being awesome when I first read them in 1993. I was about to start high school, I was getting into punk rock, hockey and girls. The only comics I ever really liked came from Image and this is when it started.

I love all the character introductions and crossovers in these first 6 issues. Like you can see Image building a foundation brick by brick. Of course some of the characters and the story is a little over the top. But this was the early 90's and that's how things were going down then, right?
