DescriptionHarbinger # 15 August 2013"Perfect Day Chapter One" pg 19 Inks over blue lines on comic illustration board Writter: Joshua Dysart (Signed lower left) Pencils: Barry Kitson (Signed lower right) Inks: Mark Pennington & Stefano Gaudiano Big thanks to Dan M for offering me these pages. I have been recently getting into the new Valiant universe and it's great to have some art from such a landmark issue. THX. In the wake of Harbinger Wars, Joshua Dysart and new series artist Barry Kitson begin the next year of Harbinger with a mind-bending trip to the outer limits of the Valiant Universe! It’s been a brutal few months for Peter Stanchek and the Renegades, culminating in the harrowing events – and losses – of the Harbinger Wars. But now the members of the team have woken up to the Best. Day. Ever. As Lou Reed sang, it’s just a perfect day, problems left all alone. But for Peter Stanchek – a kid who deserves a good day – something seems off…like all is not what it seems… HARBINGER #15's a super offbeat issue that'll make you laugh along with the characters as they do whatever ridiculous stuff they need to do to have a blast in California. All good things must come to an end, though, and eventually Dysart throws us in the book's brand new direction. If you're even kind of interested in the world of Harbinger, then this is an issue you absolutely cannot miss. Pete and crew are hanging around Venice Beach, taking in the sun, sea, and general relaxation they hadn’t had a single second for until now. Having been on the run from the get-go it’s nice to see the characters take a break and show more of their personalities and interactions within the team. Without a war raging or the group forming under a serious situation, it’s refreshing to have them talking like old friends, like they’d been a crew since grade school, weathering life as it lead them here. The dialogue is spot on for what we’ve come to learn of these individuals, and the group dynamic is strong. With all that’s happened to them, it’s no surprise when they eventually want to split up – Torque off to find a Metal concert of any kind, Flamingo and Kris are headed to a DJ/Rave party, and Pete and Faith plan to fly over the city of LA and its surrounding sights. Within a few panels of the team messing around as a group, they split and head for their separate destinations. And this is where things get weird, then even weirder. The mention of Sea Lions during a group conversation at the beginning grows into a much bigger problem, of what magnitude we really aren’t shown yet. There are some ‘trippy’ images and what look to be visions with giant Lion creatures devouring a crowd of people under the ocean, and the Metal band Torque eventually finds is named, appropriately, ‘Sea Lion’. What this all has to do with everything is unclear, as Kris begins to lose hold of herself within the visions and phantoms. There is a hint of a possible relationship of some kind between Flamingo and Kris, as well as Faith and Pete, and even a strange and creepy scene that starts out like Torque and Kris might get together, as well. It ends on a final cliffhanger page that will not only have fans abuzz, but will also serve as the real start to this new story arc. It’s intense and brutal, and a perfect WTF? to lead you into the next issue. After the harrowing ordeals of the past several weeks, the Renegades found themselves enjoying a perfect beachside day and a much-deserved rest. Then it all went horribly wrong. Kris Hathaway, seemingly experiencing a psychotic break and claiming to be following instructions from troubling voices inside the ocean itself, managed to violently attack Torque, bludgeoning him beyond recognition. Has a member of the Renegades murdered one of their own? And if so…why? Social/Sharing |
