Thief of Thieves #1 Review |
Thief of Thieves starts off as an Ocean's Eleven-esque heist story. Our protagonist is a veteran thief who has just finished yet another brilliant heist. As he returns to his home base he reminisces about how he met his partner as a young lady without much direction. Finally we fast-forward back to the present where he is being pressured about a job he's been organizing for quite some time. It's actually a lot better organized than my description makes it sound, but first issues of new series are always hard for me to write. Without much to compare or contrast this issue to, I can't say how this stacks up for the rest of the series. This is another series that I picked up because my LCS owner highly recommended it to me. I love the art, and it's a Robert Kirkman book so the writing is of course solid. I'm a lot more interested to continue following this than other issue #1 books I've picked up over the last few years. Unfortunately, after just one issue, there just isn't a lot to say about it. Pick it up. Read it. Let me know what you think. I'll be picking up some follow-up issues this Wednesday when I do my weekly run.
