We enter the world of Armor-I by following the new kid to the school Jason King. Being the new kid at school can be hard sometimes. You would have to make new friends, watch out for the jerks and find and maintain a status quo. On Jason King's first day he managed to clash with  the school jocks who were bullying a student. After the altercation, he finds out those same jocks will be his teammates on the school's football team. Thinking that he will settle their differences, the jocks invite him to hang out in the woods after football practice. Meanwhile, in a far away galaxy, a scientist Kizan is on the run from Lord Novaden. Kizan is carrying a weapon that can tip the scales of a galactic war to their favor. However, the scientist's ship was shot down and crashed landed on Earth in a wooded area.  After football practice, the jocks drove Jason to the secret spot in the woods to what he believes is to make amends. Unfortunately, they ditched him in the forest to fend for himself and find his way out. His life soon intersects wth Kizan as he stumbles upon Kizan's ship. What will be in store for Jason King now that he crossed paths with Kizan? With the mysteries surrounding the origin of Kizan and the secret weapon, Marcel Dupree leaves the story where it is at to catch our eye and give a little tease.

Armor I Issue 1 has a solid story somewhat similar to how Hal Jordan obtained his ring. Jason King has already been seen fighting for the little guys and we hope for a great superhero comic since he finds a game-changing weapon to whoever possess it. We see by the end of the issue that  the character open to possibilities he would never have expected. We are hopeful to see what history Kizan and Lord Novaden has had, let alone more information on this great war going on. Carlos Trigo and Andrea Celestini gives the art style for this comic a very polished and playful style like a cartoon animation you watch every Saturday morning. The comic as a whole is very compelling and leaves the reader wondering about King's future. As an added bonus, there is an additional comic at the very end called Baranzu about a family visiting Japan with kids being kids, running around causing chaos and accidentally releasing a spirit. What will happen to family now that the spirit has been released? Overall this comic has great stories to offer accompanied with awesome art and we definitely hope to see more from these creators. Armor-I is available digitally for $2.00 on Gumroad. Make sure to follow Evoluzione Publishing on Facebook as well as Marcell Dupree on Twitter!

Medal of Honor

WELCOME TO ANOTHER EXPLODING REVIEW AT COMIC UNKNOWN!

We enter the desert and follow Ken Baker, a Staff Sergeant aka Phantom in  Patriot-1. Baker is a spec ops soldier who finds himself in sticky situation involving the CIA. It started when his team including his team leader Janson and himself were on their last escort mission in Afghanistan since the war is almost over. The team was ambushed only Janson and Baker were left alive and captured. They were interrogated about an operation called Quisling which Baker had no intel to offer. Unfortunately, team leader Janson noted his involvement and everything went south from there. Janson's involvement essentially got him killed by the captors and now Baker is the sole survivor. Successfully escaping, Baker and the CIA have a common goal to avenge Janson's death as well as completing the same mission that Janson died because of his involvement. The road that lies ahead of Baker won't be easy, it contains deception and conspiracies this will affect his resolve as a soldier. Is he in over his head? Patriot-1 is a lengthy interesting read, you can easily lose track of time as you keep turning pages while reading it. Kevin Powers did an excellent job with the story and it blends very well with the art.

Comparable to Captain America's patriotism, Sergeant Baker is one of those rare soldiers who will do what is right regardless of how hard it may seem. His love for his country and willingness to sacrifice for it makes him into a powerhouse. The antagonist in this series is one readers will almost sympathize. His tenacity for his goal, although not the best of goals,  was a plus considering villains tend to have either sobbing back stories or they just want to the world to burn. Dexter Wee art approach engulfs the reader in this fantastic and gritty world. The readers can visually comprehend what is happening in the story as it doesn't require them to take a second glance at a page to understand. The book could not have been completed if it wasn't for Donna Gregory's and Keith Dallas' talents for the coloring and editing to bring the story home. This creative team made a marvelous story and should continue working together (either another issue or something totally fresh). Patriot won a bronze IPPY Award for Graphic Novels (Drama/ Documentary) and is clearly a keeper for those that enjoy the genre. Successfully funded on Kickstarter on August 1, 2014, Patriot-1 is available for purchase for $20.00 with free shipping including the digital copy and even a Patriot-1 bookmark! Readers can follow Patriot-1 on Facebook as well as  Kevin Powers with any upcoming projects on Facebook and Twitter!
