Okay, this issue was well written and interesting, but I can't help but think that the content could be reduced to a few pages easily. Still, adds some character development to Duke that has been sorely lacking.
The problem is, and its the same with most modern comics, it takes five issues to tell a story that we are bored with pretty quickly. Five months to tell a story is crazy. Writer should take cues from Mark Waid's Daredevil. I know I've been critical, but I give it 3.5 of 5 stars.

I liked it. It was a well-written look into a character's background. I have some minor absolutely silly quibbles, because although it is an awesome amount of Duke..this Duke is, somehow, different.
Not just the different face, although that is, for some reason, driving me crazy-that really isn't a major thing, I guess. Nor the new uniform, which I hate. Something about the man himself just isn't the same. Or maybe it's me. I've been a Duke fanatic, and I do mean fanatic, since Duke began. This guy just isn't the same type of man. But I can't really put my finger on it. I didn't realize the re-launch would be a re-invention. |

I think #3 was the best of them so far. I really liked how they told an origin story without necessarily going to the past.
