Sgt. Fury & His Howling Commandos #1


Some stories need more than one issue to tell them. This one-shot celebrating Sgt. Fury and His Howling Commandos is one of those issues. Sent on a mission to recon a Nazi railroad built in Yugoslavia, Fury and Co. end up becoming allies with a Russian spy and run afoul of Baron Zemo, Baron Strucker, and Major Tito. It’s an epic story squashed into 32 pages (give or take.)
 
With few pages and tons of actions, some scenes are over in just a couple of panels. It’s like reading a video montage of a war movie, yet there’s some vital plot work occurring here and not enough time is given to its resolution.
 
A good tale, just much of it is very rushed and makes for uneven reading at times.



WORTH CONSUMING!

Rating: 7 out of 10 stars.
