CBR Review: Berserker #1

I recently reviewed Berserker #1 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "That said, with a zero issue and a first issue, you would assume that things would be beyond the most basic of stages in characterization and concept, but they’re not. Both Farris and Aaron are barely sketched out with only the barest of hints about what lays behind their abilities available. One scene tries to give some perspective with agents from Midgard and Asgaard fighting, tying into the Norse aspect of the berserker, but not much is actually revealed in that scene."

CBR Review: Berserker #0

I recently reviewed Berserker #0 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "This comic is not worth the three dollar price tag it carries with only eight pages of story. Eight pages of story are what you expect for a zero issue, so that’s not a big surprise, but that it costs the price of a regular 22-page comic is. It’s a rip-off considering that the rest of the issue is padded with promotional material for other Top Cow books. Gee, we get to not just overpay for the amount of content offered, but also pay for promotional material? Thanks, Top Cow! I didn’t expect their pledge that regular comics would cost $2.99 in 2009 to apply to short, preview books like this. Well, live and learn."
