The black and white art gives this book a real old school feel. You get several different mini stories full of death and destruction befitting the god of war.
There are no super heroes and no Norman to hog the spotlight just Ares and death. Which I must say work out just fine as far as I am concerned.
Over all is this a book you have to read? No. Is it a book that will entertain you? Yes. I think is should have been a buck less though. That is just me. Over sized or not I get the feeling that some people love that he was offed in Siege. To win readers back over this is a nice little step.
