Meet War-Monger - a lady in physical appearance only, an
attitude from hell and a mouth to match. She’s been around since 1900 B.C.E.
(Before Common Era, so apparently an immortal), knows how to kill and can do it
VERY well. She’s in town to take down the Unity team, starting with Ninjak. Why
you may ask? She’s battled a UNITY team LONG ago, and she doesn’t really like
them. So she wants to take out the latest version before they become a pain in
the ….
OK, I like this new character War-Monger (maybe not so
much the potty mouth). She is a badass with an attitude to match. Kindt
continues to expand on the idea the UNITY team has been around in one form or
another for a long time. I like that. It gives a legacy vibe for a universe
that hasn’t been around long (at least this version). This book has been top
notch from the get-go; it’s a non-traditional super-team book filled with
non-traditional heroes. Highly recommended and now is a good time to get
on board!
UNITY #19 is in stores now, or available for ordering at www.valiantuniverse.com.
