BONUS REVIEW by JOHN ROBINSON

  I stopped paying any attention to Valkyrie back in the 1980s. I know she had a one-shot in the 90's I never read, and showed up during Ragnarok in Thor but that's about it. So this new ONE-SHOT from Marvel did get me up to speed on her entire history, and done in a fairly entertaining method which is no easy task. Decent art from Phil Winslade, and not a bad story provided like me this isn't just all recap for you. Don't expect it to win any Eisners, but it adaquetly accomplishes the task it was published for, no more, no less.
I give it 6 out of 10 Grahams
