VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W/A) Dave Ryan, Various Five years in the making! Dave Ryan's magnum opus is finally here! For the first time ever in a single comic series, The War of the Independents brings together over 200 independent and creator-owned comic characters for the largest, most ambitious, inter-company crossover ever! When villains attempt create an inter-dimensional doorway for world conquest they wind up confronting a plethora of heroes from across the muiltiverse to stop them. Indie characters include Madman, Faust, Captain Canuck, Tick, Gumby, E-Man, Zen, Badger, Too Much Coffee Man, Scud, and many, many more! Date Available: 10/26/2011 BONUS REVIEW by JOHN SCHAEFER  In a world where comic characters are owned by unfeeling, legally represented corporations, Dave Ryan and Red Anvil Comics have done what was only thought possible in the minds of fanboys world-wide. Since the very first JLA/JSA team-up, I have long been a fan of parallel universe, multiple hero team ups. From Brave and Bold to Marvel Team-Up, I've read more than my fair share. And that is why I am amazed by this book. The sheer scope of this story is mind-numbing. Let's look at just a portion of the cast. Captain Action, Mr. Monster, Faust, Too Much Coffee Man, Cerebus, Bone, Bomb Queen, Hack and Slash, The Tick, Fem-Force's Miss Victory, Madman, The Pro (YES, I SAID THE FREAKIN' PRO!), (personal favorites) Captain Canuck and E-Man, and that's just to start with...(Oh My God, it's freakin Art Clokey's Gumby and Pokey and a BLOCKHEAD!) This book is a wonderful example of what would happen if the entirety of the C2E2 Comic Convention Artist Alley all went out for drinks after the show. I hope that other artists will follow Chicago Convention Artist Favorite Franchesco and show up to do a panel or two. This could be the comic world's 'We Are The World' album. 10 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
