Heave-ho! The Otakon plunder waits for no man! Anime! Manga! Games! Fan art! And freebies! Haul ‘em all in ye scalawags!
Good evening readers, the Inverseman had the wonderful pleasure of attending Otakon last week, and between meeting Gen Urobuchi, plenty of voice actors, and seeing premieres out the wazoo, I was able to snag the dub DVDs for Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt at the Funimation booth, and tonight I’ll be reviewing the dub!
I’d be lying if I said Hawkeye was my favorite comic book archer as that title belongs solely to Green Arrow. Recently, however, Green Arrow’s exploits on the printed page have been less than stellar, so I’ve (regrettably) been avoiding his series all together. With the success of The Avengers film, it’s little surprise that Marvel would release a solo series for one of the movie’s main characters. The new Hawkeye series announced a premise that sounded…familiar. This series promised to have Hawkeye fight for the little guy, down on the streets, against corrupt businessmen…yes, this does sound exactly like classic Green Arrow plotlines! Already expecting a knock off, I bought this title. What I found was a surprise.
