Bloodshot is part Universal Soldier, part Jason Bourne. Or if you want to go Marvel, he's the Punisher with Wolverine's healing ability. Swierczynski writes nonstop action really well. This is a fantastic start to a character whose 90's Valiant version I didn't really care for.Bloodshot is a killing machine with nanites in his blood operated by a shadowy psuedo-government organization. He's been given false memories in order to control him. When he realizes what's happening, he goes after Projec...

This was fun. We're talking kick ass waterslide levels of fun. I mean really, who doesn't love a good waterslide?But you know what - this was even more than a waterslide. This was like going down the best waterslide ever, but at the same time you get to eat a box of donuts and they aren't getting soggy and remain delicious the whole way down.Yup.That's what this was. Waterslides and donuts!Fuck, yeah!

Bullet Review:Huh.Huh.Well, that was...interesting.Still not sure how I feel about it.

This was fast paced action fun with a truly fucked up plot for our hero. Imagine being a weapon and believing you have a family and friends to come home to but in reality it's all a fake lie. Now imagine having your brain override and you find out it's all fake. So now you deal with that while also going after the people who've done it. It's both intriguing and screwed up all at once. Will Bloodshot be able to get out of the clutches of the people who are using him or forever trapped? Duane give...

Pretty strong start, but certainly didn’t set my world on fire.

This was great! I hope there are more people with powers that show up in the next volume. I don't know if it's misprint, but the last page of issue four was like.... really pixalated and I couldn't read it, but that may have been the point? I dunno, but regardless, I think this and Rai are my favorite Valiant titles out of the ones I've read.

This was a fun read and a quick one at that!It starts with Bloodshot on some mission to kill someone but he is knocked down and then he is awoken by some guy named Mr Kuretich who tells him that he has been under mind control by someone called "Project Rising spirit" and how he has been killing so many people and now he remembers it and so he escapes from them and meets a nurse named Melissa and goes to check out one people from his memory and finds even thats a lie and amidst that he has to fig...

Decent start. Nothing fantastic.

Duane Swierczynski can certainly write action. This book is almost entirely action piece to action piece, though it still manages to build an interesting story around a nanotech super soldier. But this actually explores a lot of the ramifications of nanotech, more than any other comic I've read. The book sets up Bloodshot, gives him his reason for revenge, and sets up his 'team.' Bloodshot is sympathetic even as he's a walking weapon of mass destruction. It's more energetic than the mainstream b...

Why don't I read more independent? I read a lot of Image, but Valiant is amazing. There aren't a ton of cross overs, their characters are cool, and did I mention there aren't a ton of crossovers? Bloodshot is a super soldier with the completion of me, and a big red wound on his chest, but is superbly awesome. He finds out he's been used by his creators (hate it when that happens to me) and then he decides to take his revenge on them.( I also do that frequently) This is a very quick read, seeing

It's been a while since I read a comic book that I was properly invested in till the last page, and I just can't wait for more! It's so good, the storyline is super engaging, and the graphics are superb! Lowkey want to read the 90s version of this comic now, while I wait for the next volume :)Thanks to Valiant publishers for the DRC

Can't wait for more!I don't have a long history or a lot of background on this character, but I thought this was a decent jumping off point. It seems as though this title ties into some of the other Valiant titles I've read recently, and I'm excited to find out where exactly Bloodshot fits into the grand scheme of this universe. The short version is that Bloodshot is an overpowered science experiment due to the nanites that not only rebuild him, but also allow him access to computers, heighten h...

I cound't stop reading the book until i finished it in one sit down. It was a very fast paced book. Bloodshot is probably the most wronged character in The Valiant Universe. The Plot is Government's RSP program (The Rising Spirit Program) fooled him, used him... he has no life, everything he knows is a lie, RSP made him kill countless innocent people with brainwash (and he's not the only one, RSP uses many psiots and people too for its black ops jobs), he realised all of those thanks to one rene...

Alright, I can’t believe that I somehow haven’t reviewed this.What’s it about?This guy is fighting for the military and he’s a killing machine named Bloodshot. The thing is he thinks he’s someone else and has all these fake memories and has lived different lives. Bloodshot eventually finds this out, gets pissed at Project Rising Spirit (the folks who created him) and he becomes an anti-hero!Why it gets 5 stars:The story is very interesting and bad-ass. I have heard some people say it’s “too simp...

What would you do if you found out that all your memories were false? If all the people you loved weren't real, and that the government had been using you as a guinea pig for an unstable nanite weapon instead? If you're Bloodshot, you get angry and murder everyone, which I think is a pretty fair response.Continuing my comparisons between Valiant and Marvel, Bloodshot is the Wolverine of the Valiant Universe, with added Hideo Kojima (nanomachines!), and infinitely more likeable. Bloodshot's predi...

A little Robocop mixed with a little Universal Soldier and a good read to boot.

A fun read that made me want to come back for more. Nice art work too.

BCDER: 86A great introduction to the super-solider known as Bloodshot who is powered by nanites that course through his bloodstream. Bloodshot's mind has been filled will motivational false memories to the point that I'm not sure if he was once the man know as Ray Garrison or not.Dr. Emmanuel Kuretich is a great supporting character who has decided to go against Project Rising Spirit and free Bloodshot. Pulse (Melissa Krajnac) is also introduced as a powerful psiot that posses EMP type powers th...

This is the Valiant series I enjoyed the least so far. Bloodshot is just not an interesting character, and reading his solo series is boring.

Pretty entertaining.World: The art, is it a Valiant thing cause I'm still getting these muddy character designs and colors that when the action is all out really loses the character different faces and identities. The world building is good, this is like Jason Borne and that's a good thing cause it allows for a lot of story and drama. The world is very basic at this time cause we are following Bloodshot as he finds his past. Good and solid for what it is.Story: Well paced and super fast. Hits th...
