The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of QUANTUM
AND WOODY #5 from Valiant Comics. The story is by James Asmus, art by Ming
Doyle, colors by Jordie Bellaire, and lettering by Dave Lanphear.
Woody is sent out to get a job, but you know him…he didn’t.
He (with the Crone clone and goat) looked for new headquarters, and stumbled
upon a secret lair of “would-be villains.” Meanwhile, Eric is trying to
normalize his life by going back to work at Magnum Security (and return the equipment
he stole). He is about be to be
surprised on several fronts, and given an great (or not) opportunity!
You have to feel for Eric; dealing with a pain in the
butt foster brother Woody, knowing that
they have to stay together because they have to clang the metal bracelets every
twenty-four hours or be dissolved into atoms. Asmus seems to take particular
delight in torturing him, and I laughed (and rolled my eyes) every minute. While
I miss Tom Fowler’s art, the not-so dynamic duo is in capable hands of Ming
Doyle. This series has been a blast to read,
highly recommended!
QUANTUM AND WOODY #5 is in stores now, or available to
order at www.ValiantUniverse.com.
