Work details100 Bullets, Vol. 8: The Hard Way by Brian Azzarello
None. "The Hard Way" is a return to form for Azzarello and Risso's 100 Bullets after a rather lackluster and meandering detour in the disappointing volume 7 of the collected edition. Volume 8 moves the story to New Orleans, and considerably improves upon characterization, plotting and overall narrative coherence. Best of all, Azzarello's writing actually lives up to the high quality of Eduardo Risso's artwork, something which has not been true of earlier volumes. Here's hoping the high level attained in this volume will remain the norm as this series enters the final stretch. Things are beginning to come together, after several incidents earlier begin to make more sense. No-one can accuse the overarching storyline here of being told at a breakneck pace, that is for sure. This, you presume, is deliberate, so each one of these can happily be told as a stand alone, while still developing the main thread. http://graphicsf.blogspot.com/2006/11/100-bullets-8-hard-way.html no reviews | add a review
