The story takes place in Kirkman's super-hero world featured in his book Invincible. There is some cross-over with some characters from that universe. Aug 02, David rated it it was amazing Shelves: comic-books.

A terrific companion to the Invincible series and every bit just as good. Oct 11, Jinji rated it it was amazing. Anyway, thankfully Robert Kirkman decided to expand the Invincible Universe and create spin-off of other characters, including this one.

Gary Hampton is your typical successful business man, quite rich, likes going on vacation with the family. On one such vacation, he gets mauled by what seems like a bear. He gets hospitalized for several weeks where he miraculously pulls through. Little did he know, that that attack is no mere encounter with the forest wildlife, it was done by a werewolf!

Now, during full moons, he turn into the Astounding Wolf-Man! He must now learn to control his gifts, like turning even without the full moon. Robert Kirkman played the classic style with this character and it flows really well.

It might seem simple, but the essential elements are still there. Logic, drama, action, mystery, and a bit of fun. The art of Jason Howard compliments the story really well too, with his colorful yet simplistic approach. Overall a great work!

Aug 15, Paul Allard rated it liked it. The entire series in one volume — quite good stuff This volume at pages takes a while to get through and it's worth the time spent. It deals with a man bitten by a wolf, becoming a werewolf and then a superhero.

Tragedy besets him at various stages as he discovers more about what he can do, what is expected of him and he attempts to clear his name of a crime that the world thinks that he has committed.

Plotwise, there are not many surprises if you're a fond reader of the superhero comic genre but it's well-told and interesting enough with reasonably clear illustrations and incorporating the Robert Kirkman comic universe Invincible etc.. Worth a look. Nov 27, Sarah rated it it was ok. The premises - a good man turned wolf man turned superhero but there is a secret awaiting The Supernaturals have ok character build but all the capes have very little substance. But too much going on cross over to Kirkmans other series just muddies the picture.

Jul 01, Alex Memus rated it it was ok Shelves: comics. My take: the guilt that Gary has all the book is actually Kirkman's guilt for writing a book while drunk. Apr 08, David Lipely rated it it was amazing. Everything he has done is amazing! Invincible, walking dead, this, and so much more!
