Everything comes together revealing answers that just leaves more questions. So many great interactions and character moments that just drops my jaw and doesn't let up with the shock and surprises. What started as a noir anthology showcasing the best themes and style isnpired by Will Eisner goes full on epic in this volume as the stakes escalate. Definitely worth the build up from the rest of the series
Shit goes down. Croatoa. . . enough said.
Amazing read, couldn’t stop reading. Slowly but surely, the bigger picture is revealed. A major character dies in this book, but I really felt for what happened to a minor one. All in all, a tight story, bringing elements together from the previous books. The art was magnificent as always.
Back to the main plot with the trust and the minutemen.We get the back story for the whole organization, for its fist inception, at the age of the kingdoms and before the Americas and that was great and interesting!The revival of the lost souls and the big twist at the end... great stuff! :) ...Kingdoms come and go and the only way to last forever is to not ever exists. See a king may rule but the real power is in the hands A those who can make or break 'em. That's been the way it is FOR...
Going backwards in a series as tightly-written as this – 100 Bullets being more of a serialized novel in graphic form than anything else – makes me a little unnerved. But as I couldn’t get my desperately grubby hands on a copy of volume eight due to there only being one measly copy in the entire Seattle Public Library system, I had to venture forth and consume volumes nine through twelve without having read this one. Which, it turns out, is pivotal point in the entire one hundred issue narrative...
Back to the core story as another Minuteman is reactivated sees the mysteries around The Trust become less entangled. Wylie needs to pick a side? Returning full pelt into the core story line sees the series back to its best 8 out of 12.
The over-arching plot was expanded much more in this collection, and I enjoyed that development.
Great music can come from very unexpected sources. Bear traps are dangerous.
(Zero spoiler review for the omnibus this story arc collects) 4.5/5I was really looking forward to this. I was holding this one back for a rainy day. One of those reads that you just know you're going to love, so you don't want to burn it too quickly. Once read, it can never again be read for the first time. Now, over the last year or so since its release, there were plenty of times I began to doubt Azarello's ability to deliver on this, for I've read some absolute stinkers from him. Though it w...
I only care about the grand mystery, which is thankfully the focus of this volume (for the most part). It also starts to get a bit confusing in this volume, though, because we’re meant to be keeping track of all these different characters, some of whom don’t know who they are themselves, and there aren’t very many references back to anyone. There are so many subplots and side characters introduced only so they can be killed in a ridiculous way, and it muddies what might otherwise be a decent ser...
#50-58Over 50 issues in, and we get one of the true 'Oh Shit!' moments in the series.
The strongest installment in the series, so far, for me. The catchy hook of earlier issues has been put on a bac-k-burner as Azzarello delves deep into the brutal world of the people behind the briefcases, handguns, and bullets.
Even gorier than most of its predecessors. wonderful New Orleans ambiance, and some interesting new background on the trust.
This arc might be my favorite so far. Great twists. Heart wrenching tragedy. Just a fun read.
HOLY SHIT
Now how cool was this collection?Started out with so-so history blabbering, gained momentum so quickly, got so violent and highly emotional and dramatic and left hanging with that cliffhanger. Incredible.
Brian Azzarello's series, 100 Bullets, definitely contains its high points and low points. Sadly, for me, it has so far contained more lows than highs. This eighth volume, 100 Bullets, Vol. 8: The Hard Way, starts nudging the plot on the track to a discernible conclusion. We also get continued reappearances from previous characters, as the final showdown starts to take shape.First of all, the main character of this story arc, Wylie Times, has a killer noir name. His story here is also classic no...
Simply terrifying. Someone shattered the mast of your ship? Not a problem. Here, take 100 bullets & a handgun, and avenge.
Story is just getting better. I don't if i'm not a good reader or i really loved this, but i really can't find any loose ends on this. Every character mean something. Just loved Gabe, and loved Risso's New Orleans.
