Red Team #1 Dynamite Entertainment

A mini series written by Garth Ennis, told by one of the main protagonist, about a group of Cops who decide to take on criminals outside of the law.

A real good read and entertaining from the start to the last in no holds barred storytelling that comes with all of Ennis’ work.  Defiantly one for a mature reader as blood and sex all play part in a modern day tale.

This is a good series to start with for both Dynamite and Ennis as even the more collectable issues are still within a decent price range, but they are getting harder to find.

You can buy Red Team #1 from Boarder Comics

This series part of the Garth Ennis Battlefields Books is simply put amazing.  It is a story that will haunt you and live with you for a long time.  The entire Battlefields comics are where Garth shows his forte as a comic writer, but Dear Billy is set apart for it’s tale of the absolute horrors of war, not just the gore which some focus on.

Set around a nurse on the Pacific front of World War 2, it delves into the hatred war causes and it’s destruction on a personal level.  The action sequences are short as the story is about the medical staff dealing with the fallout of the battles, and I think writer and artist have done a brilliant job of balancing it right so not to distract from the story.

Defiantly a comic for mature adult audience, not for graphic nature but more for the understanding of what is going on.  You can see influences of Charlie’s War in this tale, but it is not a clone of that great work.
