review:
'X-O Manowar Book 1' by Dennis "Hopeless" Hallum with art by Emilio Laiso is a graphic novel reboot of a Valiant character that has been rebooted quite a few times. I've lost count how many times this character has been rebooted. Since I've been reviewing, it's been at least three.

This time around Aric of Dacia is played as a bit of a fish out of water. His ancient ways are paired against a modern world. Shanhara, his intelligent super-suit, is a bit humorous. Aric has new friends on Earth that will likely be further threatened.

This reboot takes Aric back and away from some of the complex storylines and entities he's been involved with. I like the approach this took and the way the characters are handled. The art is pretty good too!

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamond Book Distributors and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
