If you haven't read it, check out a 10-page preview at Comic Book Resources! And if you have, please cast your vote at Newsarama's Comic of the Week! Here's some reviews that have already come in... "Starkings and Moritat showcase near perfection in wrapping the miniseries with a shocking and powerful conclusion. The haunting vision of this issue shows what horrors war is capable of unleashing, while the craftsmanship shows what effectiveness comics are capable of producing. My strongest of recommendations go out on this one. (#1 Book of the Week)" — Ryan the Iowan , Weekly Power Rankings "Richard Starkings and artist Moritat bring (the war) to life in vivid, gory detail, bringing about some of the series' greatest thrills to date. Yes, it's the final issue in the series, but I've just been enjoying it so much that it deserves this last shot at being spotlighted." — Tom , Gosh! Comics, London "Beautifully written, the art was lovely, everything was just well done. I don't know why I never bothered to check this out sooner. Fantastic work, guys." — Greg Anderson , via Image Comics forums "American comics with a European flavor produced by Europeans. I'm running out of things to say about this series (with) Richard Starkings' excellent writing and Moritat's wonderful artwork." — Scott Cederlund , Wednesday's Haul

CBR story preview Ladrönn variant cover

"I picked up the first 4 issues of Elephantmen on your recommendation and to tell the truth, it was creepy. And not the good kind of creepy. The kind of creepy where you wake up with a spider crawling on your face and he gets away and you can't get back to sleep thinking he is still around somewhere and you feel phantom itching that you think is the spider. Yeah, that bad creepy. I may never recover." — Mrfixit1 , via Newsarama forums Post your thoughts at The Eye of the Needle or the Image Comics forums ELEPHANTMEN: WAR TOYS #3 (of 3) by Starkings & Moritat cover by Boo Cook, variant cover by Ladrönn 40pp B&W for $2.99 Diamond #AUG072007 More info >>
