1. Hoje é Terça.
2. Acabei a trade ontem mas fazer a entrada da review a uma Terça faz muito mais sentido.
3. Que dupla! ='D
4. Com a breca!
5. Acho que o ponto alto foi mesmo este

Gostei particularmente da sequência do carrinho de golf. Desce um bocadinho relativamente ao primeiro volume, mas continua em grande nível.

Exibir algo como o general Redacted apenas num terceiro volume é de uma Van Lentia (podia lá resistir a este trocalho) soberba.

Já li coisas da Valiant com arte melhor =/
Ainda bem que a loucura em crossover compensa os momentos menos conseguidos.

A sequência com o assunto JFK é soberba q.b. para perdoar enchidelas de chouriço e TPF's.

Embora dotadas de alguma da loucura que faz de A&A um mimo, não há aqui material que justifique uma trade.

Apreciou-se particularmente a passagem alusiva ao Happy Meal.

While the panel-to-panel writing in this series leaves a bit to be desired, the story concept and the overall plot are a blast. A child raised in a cult is sent out to assassinate an immortal, only to befriend him and begin battling The One Percent.

There are some goofy National Treasure style hijinks, and the pacing is sometimes waaaaaaaaaaaaay off. But, overall, it's a fun story, and I'm curious if it will ever find its groove.

Even more ridiculous and weirdly paced than the previous volume, this twisting adventure with Archer, Armstrong, Armstrong's also immortal brother Gilad, and a new geomancer, has more holes and deus ex machinas than a Stephen King novel. It's eye-rollingly ridiculous. But it's also still fun, and not appearing to take itself any more seriously than the reader should.

If you loved [b:The Da Vinci Code|968|The Da Vinci Code (Robert Langdon, #2)|Dan Brown|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1579621267l/968._SY75_.jpg|2982101] but wished it was funnier, and more involved with American capitalism and cults, this is Your Book.

This book almost gets four stars for audacity of concept. It's occasionally funny, the art is excellent, and the story appears more focused in its madness than the previous two volumes. Unfortunately, it gets undone by some klunky cliches near the end. The cliches serve to move the plot to its conclusion but two of them really took me out of the story.

When this book focuses on humor, it's great but the supposed emotional beats don't come across as believable. I'm still invested enough t keep reading though, as I'm intrigued as to how this is going to cross into the larger Valiant Universe.
