Book Review: Kill or be Killed Vol 1 by Ed Brubaker

Kill or be Killed, Vol. 1Kill or be Killed, Vol. 1 by Ed Brubaker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

"Now I just had to find someone who deserved to die and kill them...How hard could that be?"

My thought process went something like this throughout the book:

::Wow, this guy is an asshole. Oh no, he's an asshole because he's sad. Wait, is this like Memento? Oh, okay...Oh my gosh, I love this! Wait, what?!::

I'm trying to think of things or characters to compare this to. It's like a really young Dexter Morgan (minus the actual need to kill) with a Death Note-type twist. Did you get both of those references? If not, your tastes aren't as dark as mine, OR you have some pop culture to catch up on. :D

While I didn't always agree with the main character, I was completely sucked into his story. The way it was told was very laid-back and engaging. As if he were sitting across from you, only he had these really detailed panel-style visual aids.

A+++ I love stuff like this!

Criteria: -Must be in a fantasy or period piece (exceptions where time-travel or feudalism is involved) . -Must wear some type of armor  (cloth, fur, etc. armor acceptable) . -Must actually be capable of fighting  (not just wearing armor for show). -Must wield a weapon other than a gun (i.e. a staff, a bow, a sword, etc) . They are listed alphabetically according to the movie or show they appeared in.  If you can think of anyone I've missed, feel free to leave a comment. ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭ ● ⛭
