Down here I'm already dead.
And I like it. Aug 15, Sebastien rated it really liked it. I finished volumes 3 and 4. I thought they were pretty great. The art is superb, compositions are fantastic and the coloring, wow, it is perfection imo! If you are going to read this series you have to suspend belief and also know you are in for a hell of a whiny emo boy main character. He's quite self-involved and narcissistic which tires but not enough to get me to quit this shouldn't read as a challenge to the writers. The story, as ridiculous as it is, just works as a vehicle for mayhem an I finished volumes 3 and 4.
The story, as ridiculous as it is, just works as a vehicle for mayhem and entertainment and the various dilemmas and conflicts do suck me in. But I don't really understand why whiny boy is in ninja teenager assassin school, tbh with you he doesn't seem very into killing and he doesn't seem to be all that good at it either admissions at this school may need retooling.
He's also doing a lot of drugs which I think is having a downward effect on his murdering potential in fact many of the kids do a lot of drugs, this school could use a counselor or It's too bad because I really think he would flourish at the Whiny Academy, I think he has the potential to be top student there. But maybe this is an indictment of the system, his example showcases that we the system aren't getting kids to the right schools they need to be at for their talents to blossom.
Hence you see misplacement of Whiny Boy at a Murder Academy and its just another indicator the system is going to hell. The action scenes are great fun. Rivalries and cliques are ridiculous but entertaining. Sometimes there is a jarring contrast between seeing the characters worry about staying alive and conducting high stakes murdering and then next scene seeing these same characters agonizing over petty sentimental quotidien life problems Sally is dating Jerry?!
And then their life IS over in the next scene but that's because someone put a bullet in their head. So there you go. But like I said you just have to suspend some belief I'd be surprised if anyone is reading this for nuanced grounded quotidien realism and roll with it. The writing is good and helps cover up some of those things that make you go "Huh? As I mentioned in review of previous volume, this series reaches a high-level of demented. I applaud this continuing accomplishment.
There is some fun imagination going on here, I mean, very dark and twisted but imagination it is and I'm sucked into the zeitgeist of the whole thing now! Didn't enjoy this one as much as the other 2 volumes but the last issue Atleast makes me wanna carry on! The mc is lowkey starting to annoy me though Nov 03, Cheese rated it liked it.
A lot finally happens in this volume. Major characters being killed off and the main character getting hit on all sides. Edge of the seat stuff. Mar 05, Roy rated it really liked it. Its become more about plot again after Vol 2. The characterisation is becoming more fleshed out both for the kids and some adults.
The childish humour and scenes werent present. My only concern is Marcus consistently whining. There seems to be too much. I know hes a teenager going through that developmental stage but at times it does become too much. Remender is still one of my fave writers. Dec 30, James DeSantis rated it really liked it. This series really has no problem killing major characters. So this picks up right where volume 2 ends.

Some intense gun showdown. Death of a major character, big fight scenes, then half way through the volume another major death. One that actually made me sad. Made me want to destroy some mofos. I was so freaking sad, cause loved this character. Then we slow down a bit. Interesting downward spiral of our hero. Some scenes weren't needed but the last pages are so f Fuuuuuuuuck! Some scenes weren't needed but the last pages are so fucking intense I had to grip my balls and read non-stop like a mad man. On to volume 4 baby! Dec 06, Dan rated it liked it. Very mediocre teen drama shit right until near the end, but not enough to make it not mediocre Mar 10, Maddie rated it liked it.
It might be because I'm sick but this installment wasn't as easy to follow. I got Maria and Saya mixed up and that was weird. Also Marcus is getting real good at pissing everyone off.
Oct 08, Lila rated it it was amazing Shelves: Deadly Class is the best "teenagers with a license to kill" drama ever. It starts right where we're left our gang last time: Fuckface's headquarter is blown up and Marcus and Maria just run into Chico's benevolent father who goes by the lovely name of "El Alma del Diablo" What follows is one major chasing scene reminiscent to issue 1 and a great example of redeeming the previously fucked up character.
I liked Maria when we met her- she is a s Holy shit. I liked Maria when we met her- she is a seductive killer with calavera face and bladed fan- how cool is that? But, I was not happy with where Remender took her character in previous volume: Depression and constant crying didn't help.
Even her backstory was not really hers and it gave us more info on Chico and his dad. But in this volume Remender gave her back her agency and her mojo: This volume can easily be divided in two parts because high-octane, accelerating conclusion of definitely not approved by school master action Marcus and his friends took against Fuckface is followed by slower and more paranoid scenes; just miles and miles of Marcus being one hot mess and train wreck. This worked for me really good because I love stories where character's actions actually have consequences and their Fuckface carnage has a long-reaching, facepalming, casualty and group-breaking ones.
Their work is flawless. I had two major complaints about previous volume: First, I missed those subtle '80 references creators so perfected in Vol.
I swear, it's like they took my whining to heart and gave me everything I needed because: I can't wait to see what's going to happen next. Nov 11, Morgan rated it really liked it Shelves: This was slightly better then the last volume. Not really a fan of the story anymore.
Turning ito a teen romance drama more then about assassins. I hope that changes. The art is what is keeping me from leaving the series though. May 15, Zedsdead rated it it was ok Recommended to Zedsdead by: I think Deadly Class loses its way in this disappointing volume. Main character Marcus here is a weak, cowardly fuckup of monumental proportions.
Which would be fine if that were the character, but Marcus was recruited for Assassin School because he was resourceful, determined, brave as hell and I think Deadly Class loses its way in this disappointing volume. Which would be fine if that were the character, but Marcus was recruited for Assassin School because he was resourceful, determined, brave as hell and effective.
Check out that backstory in the Boys' Home. The transformation makes no sense. Master Lin poisons Maria for getting caught. Saya chooses Willie over Marcus. Marcus gets the Troll pregnant. Sep 24, Travis Duke rated it really liked it.
Remender comes back strong in the writing with vol. Maria's ghosts come back to haunt her after they discover the news of Chico. Its some great story telling and art, lots of action and excitement. Meanwhile Marco is spiraling out of control on drugs, unable to cope with his emotions about Maria and Saya he turns to Petra for rebound. The writing is much better after not caring about Marco in vol. Willie now has feelings for Saya Remender comes back strong in the writing with vol.
Even Better than the Real Thing Vol. 3 is an Irish charity two-disc album featuring a variety of artists performing acoustic covers. Despite the title of the series being taken from a U2 song, the previous. The Best of Kiss, Volume 3: The Millennium Collection is the first compilation to feature exclusively the s output from Kiss. The album was released on.
Willie now has feelings for Saya and Marco is struggling losing his friends and girlfriends. The past is catching up with Marco and its not pretty considering all the rules they have broke at the school. We are left at the freshman graduation with a surprise lesson about killing the rats at the school, namely Marco I presume. After 3 volumes I think Remender has created a really nice setting and dug deep in the character creation. I personally want to see where this all ends so I am looking towards vol.
Aug 14, Miguel rated it it was amazing Shelves: I loved this new arc! I just hope the group gets back together in vol 4, because i love them all. I adore the fact that Marcus thinks he knows everyone and everything around him, but he's so wrong! This is definitely my favorite series from image comics! Top 3 best current series in my opinion, no doubt! Jun 19, Wing Kee rated it really liked it.
A powerful end to the first arc and a choppy start to the next. The art is amazing, Craig's art is stylish, it's shocking and raw it's perfect for this series.
Then there are the colors which is so gorgeous and really makes the art pop. The world building is amazing, this arc is the culmination of the Chico story and it was pretty amazing. The pieces world put in place for this arc is interesting, they have been in the background for two arcs and now get their time in the sun to paint the A powerful end to the first arc and a choppy start to the next.
The pieces world put in place for this arc is interesting, they have been in the background for two arcs and now get their time in the sun to paint the world making the world deeper and more interesting. The first part of this book is nonstop action and a culmination of the story we've had since the first issue and it's blistering in pace and big on raw and unfiltered emotions, it's really good for a finale and the art is simply spectacular. Then we get the start of the new arc and it does start of a bit janky, there is a time jump and things happen off page that feels out of place and odd, but it's there to place Marcus where he needs to be in this new arc.
It's heartbreaking to see the self destruction but that's the whole linchpin of this arc and these unsettling and hard to look and read sections are there for a reason. Once the story get's into it's groove it's so good. Marcus is complex, he's clearly has a lot of baggage and is a very damaged individual and can't help himself.
He's also a teenage and with this school and this world those emotions we grew up get hyper real and over blown to make it so much more dramatic. His development this arc is great, it gives a lot of room for exploration and I love that. The new characters we see this time are interesting, there is enough time to get the gist of who they are but there is no lull in the overall narrative which is great. The old squad from the previous books is here too and they are developed well, some character choices come out of left field Willie but they are good characters and I want to read more about.
An amazing end to the first arc and a somewhat janky start for the second which smooths out very quickly. Onward to the next book! Jan 24, Emma rated it liked it Shelves: This was a little confusing and the plot seemed to be all over the place in parts. Unfortunately it was not as enjoyable as the previous few volumes. Sadly, my ratings for this series seem to be decreasing with each subsequent volume; here's hoping volume 4 can change that and boost the stars back up! Dec 07, Jonny Campo rated it it was amazing Shelves: This book is amazing, this series is amazing I can't wait to see what's gonna happen next.
Rick Remender is a genius writer the story and inner monologue in this book are insane it's so deep and almost poetic. Oct 03, Kenny rated it it was amazing Shelves: Remember and Craig has done it again. Marcus Lopez tests his mates and loves to the max as these assasins in training have to under shenanigans, in and out of school, with death as a reminder for any mistakes made. Jan 06, Tiffany Anne rated it did not like it. It was awful and I'm not sure if I will continue with this series. Oct 25, Danielle rated it it was amazing Shelves: Jun 10, Chad Jordahl added it Shelves: Smart but emotionally and physically damaged kid makes terrible choices and all manner of shit rains down.
