Senator Sterling is dead – his corpse found with that of an underage hooker. But why the cover-up? That\u2019s the question being asked not only by two of New York\u2019s Finest… but by the killers themselves. Bullet to the Head, a crime noir tale of violence and revenge from writer Matz (Killer) and artist Colin Wilson (Ed Brubaker\u2019s Point Blank), continues from Dynamite!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

*** Beware \u2013 spoilers may be found below *** The Good<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • The art by Colin Wilson<\/strong> and colors by Chris Blythe <\/strong>continue to impress.<\/li>\n
  • Matz does a great job of creating dialogue that seems real.<\/li>\n
  • “I sense trouble.”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The Bad:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • The cover doesn’t work at least for me.  Two panels from the comic and not the most dynamic ones at that.<\/li>\n
    • Sometimes Matz gets wordy.<\/li>\n
    • “I assume you didn’t mention that to the Lieutenant either, did you?”<\/li>\n
    • “…We’ve got a leak in here somewhere, and we’re going to have to find it.”<\/li>\n
    • The warning, “Frank! Watch out!” comes a second to late.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      The Ugly:<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • What Frank finds waiting on him — in more ways than one.<\/li>\n
      • “Stop.”  “Why?”  “He’s not going to say anything and we can’t stay here any longer.”  Oh-oh.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Bullet to the Head #2<\/b> <\/i>is for mature audiences due to violence, adult language and situations. <\/span><\/p>\n
