    Okay . . . I'm definitely planning to check this out.

    Just hope it won't be another attempt by Archie where we get several issues and then nothing else happens.

    I'm just getting back into comics and I'm a huge fan of Duane Swierczynski. I've missed out on all the comic work he's done, so looking forward to this series very much!

    Yes. Swierczynski is killing it on X and I'll follow him over here.

    Big kudos to Dark Circle for getting loose.

    IDK, i may try this out since im planning on picking up the Shield, but Swierczynski kinda left me cold with X and IDWs Judge Dredd. Plus i think his Bloodshot was the weakest of the work on the character at Valiant.

    >tfw at first glance I thought Chaykin and Francavilla were doing a book together but nope, Swierczynski.

    Francovilla's cover kicks ass. And I'm a fan of Duane's from way back before he even started doing comics, so I'm definitely looking forward to this!

    ++ I'm enjoying Duane's work on X and this looks a lot like it. I'll check it out.

    Never bought from Archie before and never planned to.

    Duane's work on X is the stuff of legend, if this is even half as good I'm in for the long haul!

    Great covers!

    This is a no-brainer for me. I'm picking this up simply because this is the same guy writing X.

    Ditto. Duane has been hitting on all cylinders since about issue 7 or 8 on X. Phenomenal stuff. Also like Waid's stuff on Green Hornet. Curious if anyone has read The Fox? From what I know there were 5 issues printed under the Red Circle banner in 2013-14.

    I read the first tpb collection of his Birds of Prey for DC and it wasn't bad, but when I later read an issue of Judge Dredd for IDW he wrote (#13) and a couple of issues of his X (#10 - 11), I wasn't all that impressed. So, we'll see how this works out.
