Quick impressions: Overall this was an entertaining and fun read. It's different than the usual super powered hero tales, and I liked that. If you like comics like The Shadow you might like this one. The story stands on its own, but there is an opening for further adventures. The volume also includes an appendix of character files presented as top secret memos, a nice touch. I really like this one and would recommend it.

Previously read; currently playing catch-up.

Wow. I've never been a big Marvel/D.C. fan, but the Whistling Skull might just change my mind about that.

Expanding on the mythos of the original J.S.A. the Whistling Skull centers on London superheroes fighting ex-Nazis in rural Europe.

Hmmm . . . maybe the step away from American heroes makes all the difference.

In any case, a fun, fun read. Not solid, but it's a great premise and a great execution. I'm looking forward to more.
