Reviews

[Andrew · Rating 4 out of 5]

I guess my biggest takeaway from this series of books so far is how little of the stories I actually know about - yes there are references to them in the various wikis and even sometimes within their own pages they refer back to past events (and even members of the ABC warriors)

I think along with a few other characters from the pages of 2000AD the ABC warriors endure even if some of the team members do not and even across all the different artists and coloursists there is a consistancy that is both so much fun and total chaos (or is that Kaos)

These books really only show a small fraction of the stories there have been published so far and I really hope there will be more to come but for now I will have to be patient with what I have and that means some might fine stories from the pages of the adventures of the ABC Warriors

Probably the best of the ABC warriors stories?
