If Men of War was how to make a war comic, then Blackhawks was how not to make one. This book takes the old WWII team and updates them to modern times. Maybe a bit too modern with their over-the-top technology that the team uses. We're not introduced to any member in such a way that we care what happens to any of them. In fact, we're thrown right into the middle of an op they're on without any knowledge of who either side is. The art makes it hard to tell which team member is which in certain areas, but since I really didn't care who the characters were to begin with, I guess that didn't matter. This was described somewhere before the launch as DC's take on G.I. Joe. If that's the case, Cobra's gonna be winning this war pretty quickly.
