Enquanto fangirl do Kindt, esperava bem melhor. Ainda assim, não desgostei totalmente.

Unity is, essentially, Valiant's answer to The Avengers. Some of their best superheroes (and a supervillain) teamed up for volume one, and now the supervillain has been replaced with, well, the villain from the last volume.

It's a pleasing development, and the introduction of a new, herefore unseen villain in the Valiant universe is very welcome. I'm very excited to see where this team's story is going next.

This book is a little bit of a challenge to review because it's a little different from other Valiant books. For a second volume, it has one less issue than most. On top of that, one of the issues is a reprint from another series featuring the first appearance of Ninjak. I decided to give this book a pass on these two points. The reprint issue was disappointing to see, but it is so enjoyable and readers that haven't picked up any of the X-O Manowar books might appreciate seeing more of these characters in a slightly different context.

The main story centers around Dr. Silk, who specializes in cloning and more specifically transferring the mind between bodies. He is a pretty dark character who has been around for a long time. It is refreshing to see another antagonist in the Valiant stories since so much has been piled on Toyo Harada.

Altogether, I enjoyed this story. It gives more of the team dynamic for the hero characters. I like how they get pulled into Silk's story and deal with him. An extra issue wouldn't have necessarily been a benefit to the story. Solid character art throughout.
