Editorial Reviews

Praise for the comics that comprise Barb Wire:
"The character development is enjoyable with some interesting setups such as the TV show, financial trouble with the club and a very fragile truce between rival gangs. None of the characters feel like archetypes thanks to Chris Warner's stellar writing, and Patrick Olliffe's wonderful artwork makes every action sequence electrifying. I can't wait to see what's next." —Hulking Reviewer

"I liked this one a lot. Pick it up if you're down for something new. 9 out of 10!" —Comics: The Gathering

"If you love overblown, loud, confident action stories then this is most definitely for you. 8.8/10" —We the Nerdy
