Conan #1: I'm hooked. The artwork is just amazing. And since I've never read any Conan before, this is all new to me. I'm already convinced that this is a book I will like a lot.
Hedge Knight Collected Edition: This follows the original story from the first Legends anthology fairly closely. If you haven't read the story, I think it works pretty well in introducing the hero. The visuals add a lot to the story, as the heraldry is described in the story well, but here you actually get to see it. Egg looks exactly as I envisioned him from the story, while Dunk ought to be even taller. He's nearly seven feet tall, for goodness sakes. He should tower over everybody. In any case, this is the first half of the original story, and it's done quite nicely. I look forward to seeing the rest, and I wonder if there are any plans to do the Hedge Knight story in Legends II?
Still to review: Adventures of the Escapist, Green Lantern, JLA, Amazing Spider-Man, El Cazador, and Usagi Yojimbo.
