@captbastard - there are a lot of idiots out there...
I love me some Deathlok, I even have his Marvel Legends figure, but this stories going to have to wait for trade for me to read it.
Posted by DarthDuck on 11/02/09 at 04:48 PMI didn't realize this was a Marvel Knights tale.
Normally I wouldn't think much of a mini for Deathlok. But 9 times out of 10 a MK title is at the least great to read. Giving it a try in trade for sure.
Posted by TheNextChampion on 11/02/09 at 04:55 PMEvery few years Marvel lets loose with a new Deathlok mini and every few years i buy the first issue only to be dissapointed. Not this time. It's sad that my fondest memory of Deathlok is his role in Maximum Carnage
Posted by RoiVampire on 11/03/09 at 04:14 PMCharlie Huston has done some nice work for the last couple of weeks. This could be could, I wouldnt lose hope @RoiVampire.
Posted by TheNextChampion on 11/03/09 at 05:34 PMI loved Huston's Moon Knight run, as well as his novel work. Guess I'm kind of a Charlie Huston fanboy. I've been excited for this book since San Diego. Hope it doesn't let me down.
Posted by FunkhornLeghorn on 11/03/09 at 09:55 PMI always thought Deathlok was cool growing up but I read more of the the Michaels Collins as Deathlok instead of the Luther Manning stuff.
Posted by JesTr on 11/04/09 at 12:11 PMehhhh this book had too much going on. I had never read a comic with seemingly so much speech bubbles littered throughout the book
Posted by RocketRacoon on 11/05/09 at 11:05 AM@Rocket: Agreed, I could have done with out the TV commentary.
Posted by JesTr on 11/06/09 at 07:37 AMi could have done without the ##### too. i mean its marvel knights cant they just use the real words?
Posted by peterporker on 11/06/09 at 08:01 PMI couldn't get into this at all.
Posted by ProjectX2 on 11/07/09 at 04:40 AMIt was too wordy.
iFanbase, What do you think about the art?
I just got my copy and Mr. Medina signed it for me.
Posted by NathanNicdao on 11/07/09 at 04:44 AM@NathanNicadan the art was the best part of the comic.

How many people will get this because they think it's about the band/cartoon Dethklok?
