“A buddy movie wrapped in a sword and sorcery tale.” Writer Jeff Lemire and Artist Mike Deodato, Jr. have joined forces again since their work at Marvel Comics for a creator-owned one-shot, BERSERKER UNBOUND. The story, about a warrior sucked through a wormhole to modern times to save our world from the past. But, it’s really much more than that. Let me explain. Upon first reading, you can really tell Mike Deodato, Jr.’s signature artwork. Very gripping and striking. His characters seem larger than life, especially when drawing barbaric characters, such as “The Berserker.” I thought at first, Lemire and Deodato Jr. were writing a public domain character that had appeared in other comics before, but it turns out this is an original character. Jeff Lemire does a great job of showing the human side of this story. When you go into it, you think you are about to have nothing but action scenes after more action scenes, but then there is a very human story of loss, confusion, and coming to grips with life. This is a very unique story, and one not to pass up. The writing and artwork are spot on, and I think for a touching “buddy” story wrapped in a warrior epic, this is definitely one that should be read!
