Damaged #4 by Full Clip Productions ()
December 5, 2011 -

First time checking out Damaged? Check out my interview with creator Michael Schwarz here: part one and part two.

It’s that time again: another month, another issue of Damaged from Full Clip Productions. The holidays are around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with some good ol’ fashioned vigilantism?

I’ve already given the series as high praise as I think can be given: great story, explosive action, great artwork. And that all is just is as true as ever. Issue #3 left me wanting more, and with the introduction of some surprising background story for Henry in issue #4, the readers really get some insight into what’s made Henry the man he is today.… Read More

Damaged #3 by Full Clip Productions ()
November 21, 2011 -

First time checking out Damaged? Check out my interview with creator Michael Schwarz here: part one and part two. Reviews for issues #1 and #2 are also up.

Now, with the second issue of Damaged out on stands as of yesterday, the trend is continuing.

Where the first issue introduced Frank and Henry, this month’s flips between 1975 and present day, giving us a sense of the history between the brothers. It also sheds some light on what Frank has been up to – where he’s been and what he’s thinking.… Read More

Damaged #1 by Full Clip Productions ()
August 16, 2011 -

I came away from San Diego Comic-Con with more than one graphic novel in my giant bag o’ goodies. Sure, there were movies, TV shows, and video games vying for my attention, but what good is going to a comic convention if you don’t enjoy its namesake? Out of the bunch in the bag, though, it’s Damaged that grabbed my attention – and it should grab yours, too.

Available on August 17th under Sam Worthington‘s Full Clip Productions imprint with Radical Comics, Damaged #1 is the start of a series that looks to be one hell of a ride.… Read More
