Robin Marx reviewed Rocketeer Adventures by Mike Allred
Review of 'Rocketeer Adventures' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
This anthology series resurrects the Rocketeer, a great character that had been largely out of action since creator Dave Stevens's fatal bout with cancer.
The talent tapped for this miniseries make a valiant effort to deliver adventure yarns in the spirit of the original. While the final product is well worth a read, living up to the creator's original work proves an impossible task. There's some great storytelling on display--particularly with one story hinting about the Rocketeer's Pacific War exploits--but the artwork is a bit weak for some stories. And while anthology stories are nice, I missed the longer plots from the first series.
