This story features a battle against a giant robot. In the process, the protagonist meets a former partner, now turned rival. The rivalry makes this comic interesting.

Overwatch #6 by Micky Neilson is a short digital comic book featuring Torbjorn, the Destroyer. The story is very short but it may just be to get the reader know the character. The art is awesome, the artist is Gray Shuko. The story has easy to read fonts and flows nicely.

Dystopian, I guess.

This was going to be interesting when it's end. Aghh... Graphics were not so much fine but quite good for the way it has been picturised. Story was good and bit apprehensive as well. All in all its a good comics.

Rewritten review; old review incorporated into new

In the sixth issue of Overwatch Digital Comics, we follow Torbörn in his own mini adventure, Destroyer. A giant mech is destroying a city, levelling sky scrapers and killing innocent people. Only one man knows how to go toe to toe with the machine and come out alive - Torbjörn Lindholm.

This issue wasn't as great as the other issues I've read of this series. It's a shame, really, and this might have done better closer to the start of the series. This one didn't grip me as much as the rest I've read. However, this did talk a lot of truth about things like nuclear races and it made me think a lot about the world we're currently living in, but I can't give it an extra star for that, unfortunately.

I found the plot line of this one enjoyable, but I didn't like the characters at all. They felt very fake and not like the rest of the characters that Overwatch has created, and I found this to be a real shame. I'd really been enjoying this series up until this one. I hope one day I can come to love this comic as much as the rest of the series but this one is just. A no from me. Sorry.

What I've done, old friend... is topple a destroyer of worlds. Torbjorn is one hell of a badass.

Epic

Epic. Seriously epic. I mean, there isn't much more I can say. If you like one of these comics, chances are you're going to like the rest of them.

Como son tomos de comics la reseña suele no ser muy larga ,descriptiva y no contiene spoiler ✨
Literalmente si son historias independientes que puedes leer por separado porque no tienen un seguimiento solo tienen en común los robots 🤷🏻‍♀️ yo quería saber de la niña del 4💔 que feo que sean así

This one wasn't a favorite, either, sadly. Seeing a bit more of Torbjorn's character was interesting, but I wasn't blown away or anything. I'm glad that Blizzard keeps producing these comics just as a means of coming to better understand the characters in the game, but they're definitely not mind-blowing or the best comics out there by any stretch of the imagination.

I guess there is a mild drawback to these cinematic paintings. For whatever reason, this one's art, while lovely on its own, could have used something a little more punchy in its place. More inks and contrast to differentiate things. Story was fine- certainly not my favorite of the Overwatch characters but aight all the same.

Cross-posted to Amazon:

There's just something about a man and a robot that gives you feelings, isn't there? Something that makes you wonder if society could be different if we just stopped and noticed the good things about other people? Torbjorn certainly seemed to do that in this one but you have to wonder if he hasn't done this before. Oh well, until next time!

Good book.

Well written. Excellent short story. With the attitude of so many people today, not sure I would recommend this book. Too much violence. As an author I can appreciate the writing and the artwork. Both were well done.

Good conflict story

This is a good read. Good action, good story, good characters. There is no development of the character, but good conflict resolution.

Single issue comic about the hero Torbjorn in the Overwatch game. Presents cools lore information. When will Sven be a playable hero, though? *side eye emoji*

Torbjörn desactiva un Omnico gigante.

Eso es todo

Este comic fue hecho para vender el juego, no vale la pena leerlo, no solo no aporta nada sino que encima la historia no va a ninguna parte.
