BONUS REVIEW by Jimmy PS Hayes

At this point I wish there were more adjectives to describe this issue. I’m really tired of using the words “Awesome” “Breathtaking” “Incomparable” and so on. So, I’m just gonna go with the old standard “If you buy one comic IN YOUR LIFETIME, make it Buck Rogers #1!!! It’s been a LONG time since a comic actually SHOCKED me, but this issue did that about 3 times before the unbelievable ending that you will NEVER, EVER, see coming. I more than guarantee it. The story is fantastic and has you literally gasping for breath in certain places. The art is beyond gorgeous! Attention Dynamite: PLEASE DO NOT LOOSE THIS CREATIVE TEAM!!!! On a personal note, the good news is, I’ve found what I’m getting everyone for Christmas-a copy of Buck Rogers #1!!!! The bad news is, if my family is reading this, the surprise is spoiled. Stop reading this WAY too long review and get a copy!!!!
I give it 100 out of 10 Grahams
