Summary: Good writing, good art...a good read.
Comment: This isn't the typical comic book from when I was a kid. Stories that are actually interesting to grown-ups! The idea behind Stormwatch is that "normal" humans have developed a team to kill rogue super-powered beings that use their powers for evil. Stormwatch is the team of humans that hunt the baddies.
A good idea, that's been well executed.
Rating: 5
Summary: Intelligent Comics
Comment: Collecting Stormwatch: Team Achilles issues #7-#11 along with a bonus story.
This title is one of the best out there. A combination of all out action and strong characterization makes Stormwatch stand out from the rest of the herd. Highlights include issue #8 titled "The Winter War" and issue #10 titled "Run". They are polar opposites with "The Winter War" as a frightening cautionary tale of history repeating itself while "Run" is a laugh out loud parody of the JLA and the Avengers.
Rating: 4
Summary: Well worth it.
Comment: This volume does not contain a single story arc but is rather a compilation of stand alone stories, each focusing on a specific team member. Each story is interesting but the one that stands out is the one centered on Jukko's. Despite being a member that's tasked to hunt down rogue "post-humans", he himself has some superhuman traits. Micah Wright has intriguingly teased the readers that Jukko can have a stand alone comic of his own, since we see him doing bits of crime fighting in a big city like New York. The only complaint with this compilation, unlike Volume 1, is it ended with a cliffhanger, a blatant sales ploy so readers will be forced to buy Volume 3. Well, I'm not complaining about buying another Team Achilles compilation but they should do it real SOON!
