The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of ARMOR
HUNTERS #4 from Valiant Comics. The story is written by Robert Venditti,
illustrated by CAFU, with colors by Brian Reber, and letters by Dave Sharpe.
The battle is over
and the Armor Hunters have been defeated. It’s a time to recover, repair, and
reflect on recent events. M.E.R.O. has been rechristened G.A.T.E. (Global Agency
for Threat Excision). Former Hunter Gin-Gr wants to repay for her actions
during the war and would like to make Earth her new home. Meanwhile, Aric (X-O Manowar)
addresses the citizens of the world make them aware that there are beings that
will protect them from future threats. They are called UNITY.
A very nice epilogue to what was an outstanding comic
event. Aric has always been a leader and protector of his people. With this
event he has become Earth’s protector and servant. If there was any doubt of which
Valiant’s flagship character was, it should be perfectly clear now. Bravo to
Robert Venditti for crafting a wonderful, action-packed story and I can’t wait
to see where things go from here.
ARMOR HUNTERS: AFTERMATH #1 is in stores
now, or available for ordering at www.valiantuniverse.com.
