Fans Love Ascendant: Star-Spangled Squadron
Check out what fans had to say about the first volume of Ascendant: Star-Spangled Squadron.
In a sea of "Let's break down paragon supers into the next nihilistic take!" this comic is a breath of fresh air. These guys understand what makes classic superhero archetypes tick. - Fiannawolf
The book is thoroughly enjoyable. It's something mainline super hero comics have forgotten how to be. Fun with out being condescending, obnoxious, or utterly incapable of allowing you to actually invest in it... The art is solid, the pacing is fantastic, brisk but not so quick your missing anything you need. I can not recommend it strongly enough! 5 out of 5! - Jan L.
Ascendant is one of the few comics that have shown me that the medium of the Superhero Comic book is still alive. That there are still brilliant authors and artists working to produce the kinds of stories that produce awe and wonder... This book gives me hope, that in thirty years I'll be able to speak as fondly about watching the birth of this era of the comics book industry, as older fans used to speak about it's mainstream contemporaries. - Jordan M.
