Customer Reviews
Extraordinary. In this time when a simple story can take a year to tell, Mark Waid tells 3 complete stories and part of an ongoing framing story all in one issue! 3 team-ups! Including 3 teams! Mark Waid shows how to write a comic the old fashioned way. I was never one of the people who raved about this series, but this issue is a tour de force. And it’s great to see musty oldies like the Boy Commandos and Dial H for Hero brought back.

It’s easy for a certain type of fan to oversell Mark Waid, but shit, if Brave and the Bold #9 doesn’t demonstrate in one classy package what makes him so damn wonderful, nothing’s going to help you. We are talking about a single 22-page comic book that brings together the Blackhawks, the Boy Commandos, the Metal Men, Dial H for Hero, Hawkman, the new Atom, and the Challengers of the Unknown. It takes all that awesomeness and actually delivers not just one, but THREE short stories, each tying back into the overall villain of the series. The pacing is immaculate; the art by George Perez is dynamic as hell and full of clever page layouts; the characterizations are spot-on. This is like some kind of platonic ideal of the perfect superhero comic book.
