Why this book:
Cause I’ve read the other volumes up to this point and they’ve been pretty good.
_________________________________________
The Feel:
Sort of hamhanded being beaten over the head with the religious allegories.

Favorite Scene:
Dinosaur Starbrand vs the Kree is an awesome image.

So, the Garden of the distant past, A couple in love lived there, deviants attacked it, and a cosmic power awoke. Bet a segment of fanboys lost their damned minds with the way this story was told.

Cover and Interior Art:
Beautifully drawn and colored. I love A good comic when words, pictures, and color come together well.

Hmm Moments:
And a Jesus allegory. This took balls. Surprised they got this passed corporate publishing, much less released as a trade.

The Unexpected:
So…the Garden of Eden, Jesus, and the Three Wise Men. … …alright.

Strikeout:
Caveman Starbrand looking like Red Hulk.

Man, this seemed short.
======================================= ( )

Was anyone requesting a new Starbrand? Starbrand, anyone? Anyone? We have a new Starbrand here! It's not just a New Universe thing anymore, you know! Starbrand! Starbrand? Hello?

Well, if anyone shows up and cares, know that this is a decent adventure tied around the passing of the Starbrand to a new carrier, with a little bit of the brand's ancient origins thrown in. ( )
