Although Harbinger is Valiant’s team book, Josh Dysart has been doing some fantastic character work within these pages. Starting with #6, each issue has featured the background story of a certain character. This one featured Faith Herbert who is an over-weight happy-go-lucky type of pop-culture nerd. Within the 22 story pages, Dysart does a fantasticly touching job carving out exactly what made Faith who she is today.

If you aren’t reading this book, you are missing out on a great character driven action book. Although it is pricey at $3.99, it’s a nice meaty read where I definitely feel I’ve gotten my money’s worth. It’s one of the very few books that I will re-read a few times before putting it away because it is that good. Give it a shot, ifanboys!
