It feels like artist Fernando Dagnino is trying. He’s working on his backgrounds, maybe working too much on his figures. But Resurrection Man reminds of an eighties DC comic, in the pre-Vertigo days; maybe a little glossy.
Oh, and terribly written.
Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning have been writing comics for more than a decade (I think) and they apparently can’t construct a grammatically correct sentence between the two of them.
It’s not just the terrible first person narration or the weak dialogue, the plotting is bad too. It’s a first issue and I have no idea the origin of the protagonist. He resurrects and he has electrical powers. With the white hair, he’s DC’s white male version of Storm. Who cares?
Speaking of indifference, Abnett and Lanning try hard to make the reader care—they kill off a baby to show the bad guys are serious.
It’s dumb.
