VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Tim Seeley (A) Franchesco Gaston (CA) Rob Liefeld Extreme's zombie-black op-superheroes return! Cabbot Stone is the last unliving Bloodstrike agent, an unstoppable weapon in America's war on terror! But being dead is a hell of way to make a living, and Cabbot is losing his faith. Will his latest mission be his last? Bloody horror-action with heart by Hack/Slash writer Tim Seeley and Artist Franchesco Gaston! Date Available: 03/28/2012 BONUS REVIEW by Kirk Jackson  For the first time, an early ‘90’s Image title has been re-launched without being completely re-imagined. While some might consider this course to be il-advised, I certainly think it raises the level of difficulty in making the book successful. With that in mind, I believe Tim Seeley deserves some pretty high praise. The history of Bloodstryke, and it’s main leader, Cabbot Stone, appears to be intact. This includes it’s ties to other Liefeld properties of the time such as Youngblood and Brigade. “So why don’t I stop reading this review right now?” you ask. Because Seeley and Gaston actually take this title, give it decent art, real character development, and cool monsters to fight. They even manage to explain why Cabot is so angry all the time rather than just having grit his teeth and shoot stuff all the time. This does not mean anyone deserves an Eisner, but I do think making this book enjoyable, while staying pretty close to the original concept, is quite an accomplishment all its own. 5 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
