Archer & Armstrong Volume 3: Far, Faraway by Fred Van Lente

3.0

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.
