by Bruce Jones, Al Barrionuevo (Illustrator)

A lone USAF pilot, about to warn his superiors of the attack on Pearl Harbor, finds his craft suddenly crash-landing on a mysterious island populated with prehistoric creatures and soldiers of wars of the past, present and future - including Tomahawk, Firehair, and Hans Von Hammer, the Enemy Ace.

A fun science fiction story. A wide variety of comic book characters that exist in different timelines all arrive on the mysterious dinosaur island. Two factions war with each other and dinos. Then the alien/future timeline people show up to make it even weirder.

The arts great and it’s fun if you can relax and enjoy the craziness.

I actually found this waaaay more interesting then I ever expected to. Soldiers from all different eras and wars find themselves on an island with prehistoric animals. Then a very futuristic soldier appears. Clearly the futuristic soldier is part of a group orchestrating the whole thing. I'm actually really excited about this and planning on putting a hold on the second one.

This was pain to read. I think I am too old for lame story about putting heroes from various sources in to the island in sort of experimental battle against unknown evil. Bleh never again.
I picked it up only because Hans von Hammer was in it.

Everything about this book felt insultingly cheap, like something you might find in a cereal box. It's completely nonsensical and lacking any sort of creative passion. This book was a complete waste of time.

The entire time that I was reading this book, I felt like there was some preceding volume that no one told me about that was really necessary for me to understand this book.

What could have been a fun idea is hampered by uninspired, one-dimensional writing.
