The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of SAVAGE
#1 from Valiant Entertainment. The story is by B. Clay Moore, with art by Lewis LaRosa
& Clayton Henry, colors by Brian Reber, and letters by Dave Lanphear of A
Larger World.
Several years ago, a private plane carrying a superstar
soccer player, his supermodel wife, and their infant son crashes on an island. Now
they must survive in hopes that they will be found. First order of business:
explore the mysterious land and find out what dangers lay ahead…
B. Clay Moore takes elements of the classics such as
Tarzan and The Lost World and crafts a promising start to what could be an
interesting and exciting book. Most of this issue is told in a flashback
with art provided by Mr. Henry, while Mr. LaRosa handles a few pages of present
day art. Both provide some beautiful eye-popping art. Also included in the
issue are a few pages of commentary from Moore discussing some of the artwork. That
was a real treat to read. This is a book to check out for sure.
SAVAGE #1 is in stores now or available at www.valiantentertainment.com.
