Cinder & Ashe #1 DC



Title: Cinder & Ashe #1
Publisher: DC


A gun for hire duo who solve problems in A -Team fashion.  However unlike Hannibal and co. this is a far more gritty tale of an ex Vietnam Vet from the French Quarter and Vietnamese street orphan.

A good read, doesn’t try to hide the dirt and desperation of the war and it’s consequences on ordinary people, but doesn’t lull into a full on tale of woe either.  After reading this I will be on the lookout for the other titles in the mini series.

I was surprised at the graphic nature of some of the events in a DC title, but well done to them for not trying to sugar coat this story, or try to turn it into a superhero tale (it may still do but don’t think so).

Written by Gerry Conway who has worked on loads of main stream comics, defiantly has become a writer I will look out for.
