My compliments to Nick Derington and Brian Blake for Savage Tales and Karl H. for Savage Dragonbert and Hitler's Brainbert! This was great comic relief that has been added onto the back pages of Savage Dragon #92!
Savage Dragon has it right, he can't leave this world as it is, it is a 'crappy option'. Savage Dragon can only do what he knows is right and that's to fight. Savage Dragon has the same mentality as President George W. Bush. Bush said after 9/11/2001...'make no mistake about it, this is not a terrorist act, this is an act of war' and took the necessary steps on our war against terrorism. Savage Dragon makes the same option and knows that he now faces a war.
Loved the double page layout of Savage Dragon v. Devastator. Savage Dragon knows how to push the buttons on the Devastator, by saying that Alex loved him more. The Devastator's nerves already were in knots and Savage Dragon just made it worse.
What I love about Savage Dragon is that most of the issues have some kind of major battle raging inside and this story is no exception. Then Skullface is another story, here's a guy who knows pain and probably would make good friends with Clive Barker's Pinhead. Skullface knows pain and Pinhead enjoys delivering pain. What a great team these two would make. What a rut this poor guy is in, he has invisible skin and a toxic body. Yikes! Yup!
Savage Dragon knows that a war is about to start and of course, he's going to lead this war! Then there is the talk of casualties, war is a dirty business, but sometimes it is necessary. Savage Dragon knows it's necessary. I felt for Savage Dragon as he is wishing for more money and more soldiers and then with sheer luck, he gets both through Rock and his crew! The war is ready to start and there is going to be hell to pay!
