Posted on by

The Expendables #4 is part of a four-issue mini-series published by Dynamite Comics.

Writer: Chuck Dixon
Artist: Esteve Polls
Colorist: Marc Rueda
Cover Artist: Lucio Parrillo

The action-packed comic book prequel to the action-packed movie even of Summer, 2010 concludes! Read the story BEFORE the story and find out more about the characters BEFORE they hit the big screen this summer! In this final issue, the crap has hit the fan. Plus: explosions!

*** Beware – spoilers may be found below ***

The Good

  • The Expendables in a comic prequel.
  • “Our evac strategy?”  “Fluid”  “Like usual then.”

The Bad:

  • It is still bugs me that the comic characters don’t look more like the movie characters.
  • A lot of headshots this issue.

The Ugly:

  • “Sorry, baby, I didn’t make you any breakfast.”  “Then why do I smell bacon?”

 

The Expendables #4 would get a two star rating if I wasn’t such a Stallone/Expendables fan, but since I am…
