Review: Victor LaValle’s Destroyer #1
When the last descendant of the Frankenstein family loses her only son to a police shooting, she turns to science for her own justice…putting her on a crash course with her family’s original monster and his quest to eliminate humanity.
Victor LaValle’s Destroyer #1 is an intense, unflinching story exploring the legacies of love, loss, and vengeance placed firmly in the tense atmosphere and current events of the modern-day United States.
A new take on the classic story from writer Victor LaValle, artist Dietrich Smith, and colorist Joana Lafuente.

Absolutely loved this issue. I’m a sucker for Frankenstein stories. I’ve been waiting for this comic since it was announced. This was my pick for the week in my comic book store. Boom Studios is doing a lot of great things with their comics.
Loved the video review! Hope to see more!
Thanks on the video review. Been doing it with trades and some graphic novels. Seeing what works and what doesn’t right now.
And I can’t wait for the second issue. Hoping we see more of the social commentary that’s been teased.
