Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Some 20 years ago, Wagner published his first stories featuring Hunter Rose, a young socialite who was secretly a criminal mastermind and fearsome costumed assassin known as Grendel. In the initial series, Rose died at the hands of Argent, a werewolf fighting on the side of the law. Wagner has continued to produce Grendel, however, mostly by depicting future versions of the character, who comes, over the centuries, to be recognized as the incarnation of sheer evil. Others episodes revisit Rose's stint as the first to wear the mask. This book gathers 23 interconnected stories that retell Rose's life and death, all written by Wagner and illustrated by various artists in black-and-white with occasional blood-red accents. Wagner's collaborators include Kelley Jones, Jill Thompson, and Michael Zulli, all known for their work on Sandman. Grendel fans may best appreciate this alternative view of the story that started it all, but the collection affords new readers opportunity to experience the Hunter Rose saga in a single volume, rendered by an enjoyable diversity of talented illustrators.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you like Hunter Rose....

This book continues the collaborations between Wagner and guest illustrators depicting episodes from the life of grandiose assassin Hunter Rose, the first and most entertaining character to sport the Grendel costume. Despite all the obvious criticisms one could direct against the sadistic anti-hero and the adolescently pretentious tone of the writing, the character and stories remain compelling, with the vividly imagined quality of true, if nightmarish, inspiration.

4.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended
Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2011
This is the first work featuring Wagner's Grendel that I've come across, so I can't compare it to any of the other Grendel stuff out there. I can say that Wagner here demonstrates an exceptional writing talent, and that the art accompanying his stories in this volume strikes me as innovative, interesting, and occasionally even beautiful. The combination of eloquent nihilism and brutal violence that appears to be Grendel's trademark is both compelling and moving. The stories, which are short and simply plotted, are not intimidating to the Grendel novice, e.g. me, and the quick pace keeps the pages turning.

I was pleasantly surprised by this collection, and would recommend it (but not lend it) to any fan of the medium.
