I picked up “Bloodshot Reborn” a few years back and enjoyed the first few issues, so I thought I would start at the beginning. Enjoyed the first volume and am interested to see where the story goes.

Cover looked pretty badass. . . then I read the summary and was confused as hell. I seriously almost put it back, sooooo glad I didn't! THIS WAS SO BADASS!!! I can't wait to read the next one! =D

Based on cover appearances and name, this series could easily mislead people into thinking it's some blend of Deadpool/Punisher/Rambo with some nanotech mumbo-jumbo thrown in to hand-wave away any powers plotholes or blood loss.
And in some scenes, that's kind of the case. But then! This is also a story of losing one's agency and memory. There are two (all together now) strong female characters introduced within the first four issues. There's the sharp, dynamic artwork that would make Bryan Hitch squee. Swierczynski teases a lot of pieces and angles on the board for this first book, leaving me very hopeful for the stories to come.

A great intro to latest version of Bloodshot for newer readers, unlike Archer and Armstrong, the pacing in this book is better, the only thing that did not win me over is the artwork. Compared to A&A and X-Manowar and Shadowman, I am not a fan of the artwork. I dig the covers for the single issues, included in this TPB.
I was 10/11 yrs old when the first series came out, and I had vague memories of Bloodshot, but I am familiar at what he looks like and all. The iconic red dot on his chest was greatly used in the story. Duane did a great job writing this.
Also the plot and overall story connects with Harbinger series, which I will be reading soon. I hope Valiant would last more than 10 yrs this time.

This was fun. We're talking kick ass waterslide levels of fun. I mean really, who doesn't love a good waterslide?
But you know what - this was even more than a waterslide. This was like going down the best waterslide ever, but at the same time you get to eat a box of donuts and they aren't getting soggy and remain delicious the whole way down.
Yup.
That's what this was. Waterslides and donuts!
Fuck, yeah!

Nothing wrong with it. Just not my type of thing.

I have never read anything on this character and this was my break in story. Bloodshot seems like a pretty cool character. I am interested in reading some of his best stories after this. There was plenty of great artwork in this one.
