(December 2001) "Book 1:
Chapter 6."Story: Chuck
Austen. Art: Chuck Austen, Wild and Wooly Press and
NIC Entertainment. Layout: Victor Lopez.
The
US
War Machine Team is en route to their first
destination -- an AIM stronghold!
Austen pours it on thick with race dialogue -- and depending on one's point
of view, it'll either make sense...or nonsense! But just in the nick --
it's drop time! The team descends on the AIM
base! The CG armored action is top-notch, enhanced by the CG sound effects.
It quickly becomes a chaotic combat situation -- and the issue ends with
a mystery: the dude Rhodey axed in issue #1 turns back up alive!
Hube's Recomm.:USWM
patches!
TJ's Response:
Weird black-out on Page 3 panel 3 cannot be ignored. Makes one wonder
what is covered-up in that spot. The racial discussions are well-done,
if for only the fact that they are very realistic to arguments that have
been heard from all sides in the past. And then, there comes, the
design flaw! Brilliant stuff!
TJ's Recommendation:
4 USWM patches!
