Bloodshot #1


      This restart (reboot?) of the Bloodshot series from Valiant Comics puts the focus on action and intrigue. 

   Well, mostly action.

   We jump right in with an armed conflict in Yemen, as mercenaries with advanced weapons threaten innocent lives - and that's when Bloodshot steps in.

   What follows is a hard-pitched, action-packed battle between a super-powered soldier and a small army - a fight that may not end in the way you'd predict.

   Along the way writer Tim Seeley provides a recap of Bloodshot's origin and we learn why he's being hunted.

   Brett Booth provides art that packs a punch, loaded with dynamic action and intensity.

   It's a great jumping on point for this classic character, and a solid start to the series.

Grade: B+
