uosdwisrdewoh's review against another edition
4.0
Another delightful chapter in Mike Allred's Madman series, now with colors by Laura Allred that make Mike's already vibrant art pop even more.
Much of what I wrote about the three earlier volumes remains true: Madman (Frank Einstein, and I can't believe how long it took me to get that pun) remains an utterly charming protagonist. Allred has toned down on his random acts of psychotic violence (here he takes it out on a robot rather than a henchman), but there's still something off about the guy. He's closer to Bugs Bunny, but he's still not 100% ready for Saturday morning.
Mike Allred's effortlessly breathtaking action sequences are present in full effect, as Frank jumps and fights with astonishing vigor to get back to his home, his girl, and perhaps most poignantly, his TV.
