Bloodshot, Vol. 3: Harbinger Wars by Brian Reber, Stefano Gaudiano, Duane Swierczynski
3.0
Crossovers can kill the momentum of a good title. And the Harbinger Wars brought a thudding halt to a really good run of Bloodshot. The first three-quarters of this book continues the violent, focused, tale of Bloodshot Vs The World. With a bunch of future Harbinger kids in tow, he takes a break from battling Operation Rising Spirit to do battle with the Harbinger's antagonist, Toyo Harada.
I was fully enjoying the tale until the final issue in this collection when the main Harbinger team makes an appearance and, with no clear intention, talk disjointedly to each other, disrupt Bloodshot's mission, and then disappear completely from the story.
It's such a disappointment.
I have high hopes for the next volume, when it will disentangle from the crossover, and hope that this is just one bad issue and that it's not a ... ummm ... harbinger of things to come.
