A review by geese82
Deathmatch, Volume 1 by Paul Jenkins

3.0

The premise/concept of this book is nothing new to me (thanks manga!), but I like what Jenkins and Magno bringing to the table. Imagine the Avengers from Marvel trapped in Arcade's world mixed with Battle Royale/Btoom! and you get superhumans pitted against each other not knowing what or who is behind this. Unlike the big two pub, the characters (hopefully) stayed dead. Jenkins writing is superb and backed by the nice lines of Carlos Magno which reminds me of Moebius or something similar to the French artist. The ending gives way to volume 2 and was a good cliffhanger. I just hope the next volume does not disappoint.
