Juan Antonio Ramirez
A Review
Ramirez’s graphic novel brings reminders of the mid-70s television series of the same name. A well-done followup, that weaves several stories in this collection of individual issues into a single book. I sensed that I was truely again following the adventures of Steve Austin as he worked for the OSI - even as its funding is disappearing. It was well-worth my time reading the latest installment of The Six Million Dollar Man.
My only concern is that I do not like a compilation of individual issues ending with a “To Be Continued”. Though I know it is not unusual, but I expect the resulting novel to be the complete story - that is not the case here. I will need to wait for the next volume (if there is one) of the series to find the end of the story. Perhaps it is a good marketing tactic, and fair with individual issues; however, I question its use in a larger novelization.
