The Massive #1
The works of writer Brian Wood are predominantly known for three unique traits or facets: their Network style, punk-rock political rage, the way in which they wear New York City as more than just a simple setting and of course, for being bloody good comic books. He’s been known for those things for years now, from the first page of the rough but potent Channel Zero through to the last of DMZ, the opus of his current career; that’s a long time to stay mad as hell, a long time not to take it anymore and so it only makes sense that his latest series, The Massive, would show him to have mellowed a little, that it would reveal a brand new Brian and that is exactly what it does. This book doesn’t brim with discontent, there is nary an American in it’s cast, let alone a New Yorker and yet, it seems some things never change no matter how much time slips by, because The Massive is without a doubt bloody good comic books.
