The only problem I had with Johnny Raygun was that
I wasn't sure what order I should read it in.
Should I read the Quarterly or the Special Edition
first? I can now help you with that. Read the
Special Edition first, and the Quarterly second.
Though if you read it backwards, like I did,
you'll still be able to understand everything
well.
When I picked up Johnny Raygun, I wasn't sure what
to expect. It looked like a hokey 1950's space
adventure comic. In some ways, it is just that,
especially with the stylized character and world
design. However, Johnny Raygun has a distinctly
modern flare to its humor.
Johnny is an Agent for Raygun Agency, why his name
and the name of the Agency are the same is never
really explained, but it is quite clear from the
comic that he is not in charge of Raygun Agency.
The only answer I can come up with is that perhaps
your last name automatically becomes Raygun after
you become an agent.
The stories have an excellent pace and compelling
plot line. The art is reminiscent of pulp comics,
and occasionally some of the characters are hard
to tell apart like Mud Master and Johnny. But
overall, it's a fun read. You can go check it out
