It's funny, weird, exotic, honest, and just plum good readin'! This is Remender at his best because it's so balanced. Cynical, funny, but thankfully optimistic!

Heath and Charlotte's bittersweet romance permeates these stories, as well Heath's sense of lostness and self-medication, which Remender tells us is allegory for his own life. But I think Fear Agent is the most enjoyable way to get to know Remender. Heath Huston is an awesome character. Like Rick Grimes if he Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 both Lori and Carl and turned to drinking and killing zombies. He's reckless, kinda dumb, but quick on his feet, with a good heart, and knows what he wants. It's incredibly fun to watch this man fly around space and fuck shit up totally drunk. I love their illustrations. Just, damn. Absolutely beautiful. And the lettering is on point and stylistic by Rus Wooten Walking Dead. This is a stunningly illustrated and designed book. A Short Note on the Deluxe Edition The Library Edition from Dark Horse is insane. This thing is like a Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 book. Suck it, DC! The jacket-less hardcover is amazing, super thick and sturdy, with a bold spine. The sewn binding is flawless, no gutter loss, and the book lays perfectly flat. The pages are crazy thick, high gloss. And the extras are awesome, with tons of illustrations and variant covers. My only tiny complaint is the matte black cover shows scratches easily. But other than that, this is a beautiful edition worth much more than the price. View all 11 comments. Aug 03, mark monday rated it liked Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 Shelves: comicon. Rick Remender's man vs. I suppose this is a bit spoilery, but I can't help but point out that this is a series where the hero "dies" more than once and the devastation of earth is much more than it seems - and it also happens more than once. Heath Huston may be a traditional type of old school protagonist, but I was taken aback at the depth and constancy of his alcoholism; I was also impressed by the sheer horribleness of one of his past actions. I usually tend to talk more about writers than illustrators in my reviews of various comics, and this review is no exception. I was impressed again and Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1. I probably still will. View all 4 comments. Dec 19, Gavin rated it really Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 it Shelves: comics. I had no idea what to expect, I just really have enjoyed Remender's Marvel work, so I saw this on the library website and reserved I'm just going to assume they did because that makes sense. Great characterization, humour, and dialogue written like actual people might use in everyday conversation If this description has you aroused in any way, then yes, read Fear Agent. He copes by drinking a lot of Whiskey, and quoting Samuel Clemens ie. Mark Twain. This should have you just as excited as the previous paragraph. Remender has created a fantastic anti -hero, who might not always do the right thing, but tries Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 balance on the positive side of Karma. How this is not being developed as a movie yet, I have NO idea. This needs to get made now. Production companies: can I send you a cheque now?? On top of that, the art by Jerome Opena and Tony Moore is superb. Some panels it looks Mad Magazine-ish, but then others it has just the right amount of grit and space--eyness to it. I wish I could describe the art better other than to say, it kicks ass. You care about this character, and even more when you meet the supporting cast, even with a huge volume nearly pages, I devoured this. This is Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 old fashioned gold. The kinda book I would have loved to stumble across when I was young, and then grow into. This also has a great sequence about urinal etiquette, something I'm sure some can relate to, and most can laugh at. Oh and of course, the Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 person I thought of was Lono Anyone who likes Remender Mike, Anne, to start should give this a look. View all 3 comments. Jun 29, Chad rated it really liked it Shelves: A rip-roaring, throwback to pulp science fiction. Fear Agent - Wikipedia Still, Rick Remender has told us about how many people have come to his table at conventions and mentioned that they heard about it from us. That means a lot to me, because I know how much this book means to its creators. This is completely absurd. He kills aliens. Thankfully, Fear Agent got me to look him up years ago. Earth was hit by aliens some years back, and Heath lost everything. There are several distinct arcs, and an overall story, and this volume contains the first three. This continues to make zero Fear Agent Library Edition Volume 1 to me, but thankfully, Remender and Moore company recognized the oversight, and took pains to correct it. Except, it never really took. The people who loved this book, myself included, fawned over it. There were delays and at times, it seemed like it would never finish, and that we would certainly never see a volume like this. But like Heath Huston himself, against all odds, here is Fear Agent in all its glory, and this is one hell of a package, partner. The book is as impressive as any Absolute edition or omnibus out there. You could beat a Tetaldian to death with this thing, and feel confident that their disgusting brain goop would wipe cleanly from the huge, glossy pages. There are annotated development drawings, sketches, and layouts from Tony Moore, and a pinup gallery of Heaths to beat the band. Like the series itself, this book is a labor of love, and if you loved Fear Agentit was literally made for you. This is pure Rick Remender. He oozes humanity, even surrounded by so much extraordinary settings. It does, and Remender becomes a better writer over the years it took to make these comics, but it never feels like the work of a neophyte. One can hardly ask for more in terms of art. Tony Moore has always been a favorite of mine, and most people think of his co-creation of Walking Deadbut I always think of Fear Agent as his signature piece. The basics are there at the start of this story, but you can definitely see Tony Moore get better as you go through the pages. His layouts get stronger, and his character acting gets stronger. More important than that though, he builds a world you completely accept. And it is a strange world full of many things that do not, and will not exist.
