Speedtribes's review
The Sentry (New Avengers) by Paul Jenkins
For someone that's read as many genre short and long stories, anthologies and what-not, I found myself guessing the ending to this story about half-way through. Still, it was dramatically well written and drawn beautifully. The pacing seemed as if it were made for this format and didn't lag or feel rushed at any point. The coloring matched perfectly with the line work.
For a story that seems terribly familiar and a cast of characters I never particularly cared for, I found myself really enjoying the story. Definitely one graphic novel I think should be on everyone's shelf as an example of how to really work the medium.
I don't recommend the series that erupted grossly out of the success of this, however. I read the first few issues and found it particularly heinous.
