That boy on FIRE with these reviews. 🔥 you said something that Cooke did so well that I totally agree with: He put B & C list characters in the spotlight which is why I loved Geoff Johns Justice League run too. I love writers that aren’t afraid of giving underrated characters a chance. Well done review bro. I need to get this absolute for sure. Hopefully DC brings it back.
Yes sir! Cooke really loved these characters and it was a breath of fresh air! I hope I portrayed my excitement! I tried to be like you and just let my love for the book speak for itself! Thank you for watching bro! You’re the day 1!
This is probably my favorite DC standalone story and it's certainly my favorite Absolute. Weirdly, the Deluxe edition of New Frontier was much more expensive than the Absolute for years, I'm glad that for you non-Absolute types this wonderful book is available again at a reasonable price point, even if it doesn't have the most impressive eye. Such great extra materials in this one!
Haha “you non-absolute” types! OUCH! I felt sassiness in that one! I agree this is an incredible stand alone story and comic book in general. This is one of the few comics that everytime I read it I come out on the other side so much more happier and hopeful which is always a great feeling when closing a book! Sad we lost such a legendary creator!
My man Taylor! Totally agree! I know Cooke has such an incredible body of work but this is his Magnum opus for me! So much hope and love injected into this story that it gives me chills every time!
Thank you! I’m really trying! I try to give a similar product with improvements in some way but man am I learning a lot! Thank you for watching! And that’s awesome! I really like the movie also and in some ways it feels like an easier to digest version of this story but still the comic is a work of art!
You are really selling it, my friend. I think I finally have to pull the trigger on this one. Thanks, man. 👊🏻 I think your barber had a lot of work. Veey smart. What you save in shampoo, you can spend on comics. 😉 Enjoy your weekend.
Haha nice I roped you in Ben! This story really is a work of art and an incredible product so I can’t recommend it more my friend! Haha yeah my hair is some how even more wild but appreciate you noticing! You got a keen eye!
I only started collecting graphic novels this year. Starting with Locke & Key: Keyhouse Compendium, which I highly recommend. I did look into DC and Marvel but got bamboozled with reading orders, they are all over the place for a beginner like me and that put me off. So I decided to start with Hellboy Library editions, Black Hammer Library editions (I'm starting to see a pattern here) and The Sixth Gun Deluxe Editions for the simple reason you read Vol 1 then move onto the next volume, that's how I like my reading orders lol, of course the art and stories grabbed my attention too. I recently watched The New Frontier movie and loved it so I've added the absolute edition to my to buy list right next to Absolute Swamp Thing Vol 1-3 by Alan Moore. Thanks for the review, it puts my mind at ease. It will be a great read.
Thank you for watching! If you’re a fan of easy reading orders or titles that are easy to get into then this book is a great purchase by you! All you gotta do is know a little about who Superman and Batman etc. are and then just start reading! Let me know what you think once you get into it!
