REVIEW: Savage Squad 6 Issue 1

Savage Squad 6 starts in the future. It is 2037 and society in in disarray. Everything has come to a halt. An army called The Scourge has been in control. The pockets of civilization that do remain have been hunted by the Scourge. All men of fighting age have been killed and the Scourge believe these remaining communities are no longer a threat.

We see in issue one they could not be more wrong. There is an army willy to fight, made up of some of the most capable female savages. This first issue lays the foundation for what looks to be a unique story of freedom fighters.
