Cool to see John in a new limited series. I'm digging this "military contractor" vibe. So he's basically a merc that works for the government. Interesting.
Let's see where this goes.

"I am a man of peace."
"A man of peace...who fights like ten tigers."
Fairly ambivalent about the character, but
1) I enjoy Priest's work a great deal
2) I can't see this lasting long, and I honestly enjoy short runs that tell a solid, single story
So I may very well pick this up!
-Pav, who loves when he finds new appreciation for a character...
You were Spider-Man then. You and Peter had agreed on it. But he came back right when you started feeling comfortable.
You know what it means when he comes back.
"You're not the better one, Peter. You're just older."

I think Priest's writing style and brand of satirical cynicism will be a good fit for a US Agent book.
I'm not in love with the new look though.
It would be kind of interesting to see Priest get another shot at Cap, although I'm not sure how interested he would be in that.
They might make exceptions for characters who have MCU tie-in's.
depending on how the shield is thrown, I wonder how will artists depict it. upside down, etc.? could complicate things slightly.
Just how many different shields has he owned? This could be another storyline, "all the missing sheilds".. even if they are sub-vibranium. (right?)
Considering how well Priest wrote Deathstroke, this is gonna be good.
"Cable was right!"
Checking this out, Priest made me care about Deathstroke.
I'll stay tuned to the Appreciation thread to come. Even with Priest on the book, I won't buy it unless there's someone in the supporting cast that I like. As others have mentioned, I prefer him in a team setting, but we'll see how it goes. Congrats to the US Agent fans. hope it's a good read.
I still prefer the original costume. Hope this won't be permanent.
e already know it's a 5-issue mini, so...
Let's see.
1) He used the original for a while.
2) The Captain's Vibranium shield
3) The eagle-shaped shield he used while leading The Jury.
4) The Force Works energy shield
5) The solid/energy hybrid shield from his not!Dredd days.
6) The star-shaped shield with the names.
Those are the only ones I recall. What has he been using lately?
F= YEAAAAAAHH!
This is relevant o my interests.
Hilarious already "MCU ENERGY" I love it.
Priest is so good at breathing life into this type of character. I'm going to buy 2 of every issue. F'real.
I love the U.S. Agents team america vibe, so different from steve. I'm not the biggest fan of that shield either buuuut... Its a minor contrivance. I'm just glad he's not using that energy thing anymore.
My priority is enjoying and supporting stories of timeless heroism and conflict.
Everything else is irrelevant.
