The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of HAWKEN #4 from IDW Publishing. Benjamin Truman and Timothy Truman write and draw.
Kitchell Hawken has seen a lot in his day. But these days it’s
revenge that drives him, not to mention the ghosts of those he’s dealt with in
his somewhat shady past. Now he’s hunting John Gallis, and he finds an unlikely
ally in his search. Not that Hawken holds much stock in partners…
This is a story with a believable Wild West feel, with just
enough supernatural stuff added to make it interesting. There are a few hints
about the group he’s chasing, but it’s very subtle at this point, which adds to
the mystery and leaves lots of room for play down the road. And Hawken’s not
the nicest protagonist in the world, but in his defense, he was tortured and
left for dead. Sometimes it’s fun to see mean people duke it out.
There’s a lot of potential here; this could be a fun story
for a long time to come. I look forward to seeing the Trumans keep this thing
moving and changing, keeping us on our toes.
HAWKEN #4 is available now at your FLCS or by order from idwpublishing.com.
