Hero #3
SCORE: 65
Noah, Peter, Princess and myself took a trip to Nashville in the
summer of 2023 to go to the McKAY store. Hero #3 is one of the comic
books that I found there. I am very happy that I am finally able to work
it into my comic book reading pile. I vaguely remember this six part
limited adventure series back in the day. Hero #3 was released in July
of 1990. Man that was a good year.
There will be spoilers in this review. The issues families can have with
Hero #3 is magic, violence, false gods, and more. There is some humor
within Hero #3. There are twenty-four pages of comic book content within
Hero #3. Advertisements can be found all throughout the Hero #3 comic
book. I love seeing advertisements for some older video games in this
comic book personally.
Hero #3 does not provide a recap or a credits page either. I am brought
up to speed a little bit thanks to some of the dialogue. This man on
Earth dies and winds up in some fantasy realm. He just wants to get back
to New Jersey. He has some weapon called the Devilthorn in Hero #3. He
is supposed to kill the Slivigoth. They promise to send him home
instead. So he goes with them.
The Slivigoth make one mistake in Hero #3. They send the hero outside
and have scorpions attack him. The hero winds up coming back into the
structure in Hero #3 and decides to finish them off. Attacking them
directly in their lair does absolutely nothing to them. The hero notices
this orb above them and attacks that instead. That was the key to
killing these creatures in Hero #3.
The hero winds up dying at the end of Hero #3. One of the guardians of
the Slivigoth stabs the hero in the back. We then see the spirits of the
Slivigoth being eaten by some other evil character. I am not sure where
this series goes after Hero #3. I hope to be able to find the first two
issues at some future date. Thankfully I do have the rest of this six
part limited series.
