Bloodshot, Volume 4: H.A.R.D. Corps by Christos GageMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Alright! This is some good old fashioned action filled comic book storytelling right here. Bloodshot is a beast. Adding the H.A.R.D. Corps on top of it makes for a really fun book.
So, this picks up where volume three/Harbinger Wars leaves things off. The continuity between the different arcs is something I really appreciate in Valiant comics. Anyway, Bloodshot is back with Project Rising Spirit to lead a strike team against Toyo Harada. I like the way the creative team is able to add new characters via H.A.R.D. Corps and make them interesting right off the bat. It develops how people are chosen to participate in the program and what the consequences may be.
The art is good. It definitely fits for the type of story that is being told. I feel like the creators get a chance to revel in the over the top action stuff because the character and the book allow for it. Sure, there is some character building too, but that almost takes a back seat on this one. Anyway, the series continues to be enjoyable and I will definitely be picking up the next arc.
