With its lethal, quippy protagonist, corporate espionage set-up, and well, robots, THE WILD STORM is a fine gateway drug into the Ellis oeuvre. --Paste Magazine <p/>One of the most exciting superhero projects of this year --A.V. Club <p/>In many ways, the Superhero Boom began with Ellis and Wildstorm.<br>--Vulture <p/>THE WILD STORM doesn't read like any Wildstorm comic that's come before... it's a sci-fi-flavored espionage book, one that takes a handful of familiar faces, remixes them and generally re-imagines the Wildstorm Universe to suit a more contemporary and jaded audience. --IGN <p/>The story is just told with scalpel-like precision and that's something of a hallmark for a good Ellis tale. --Newsarama<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Warren Ellis is a comics and graphic novel writer best known for the graphic novel series TRANSMETROPOLITAN, THE AUTHORITY and PLANETARY.
