Aquila: Charon“s Mercy part 2 by Gordon Rennie with art by Paul Davidson and Len O“Grady. Two thieving assassins who use brutal tactics are forwarned of their potential fate, is it wise to fall upon deaf ears?
I have become fond of anthology series and enjoy flicking from one story to another through a handful of pages, some tones vary from non-stop action with Judge Dredd, to horror/suspense to a mild humour to violence. Definitely not for children, 2000AD has stood its ground as a world leader in being unapologetic in its approach to the comic medium. However the tone or mood of Survival Geeks (has the Goonies vibe) especially with the comical animation art-style, for me this is a major shift of the mode and there are some laughable moments. Then we jump back into the gritty tones. Brilliant story-telling and art throughout this book.
An anthology title I can read over and over!
