Jackie Estacado, a mob hitman possessing a mysterious, malevolent force known as the Darkness, and New York Police Detective Sara Pezzini, wielding an equally mysterious weapon, the Witchblade, are abducted and trapped in a realm of illusory violence and bottomless time. Forming an unsteady alliance, they rip through layers of false realities to discover that they're imprisoned on a huge, living spacecraft high in Earth's orbit -- an ever-changing prison ship controlled by the mind of a madman. Their fellow inmates? Swarms of Aliens and a female Predator with a jones for the Witchblade's power! If they can't find a way to prevail in this wild arena, they will be responsible for the end of human life on Earth! How could things be worse? Throw a Darkling/Alien hybrid in the mix! A fear-filled romp in horror and science fiction, written by David Quinn (Dr. Strange, Faust) and pencilled by Aliens vs. Predator vs. Terminator's Mel Rubi! Co-published by Top Cow.

Awful,
This review is from: Aliens / Witchblade / Darkness / Predator: Mindhunter (Paperback)
I own the so-called first part of this wreck, OVERKILL, and that, along with the fact that I colled DARKNESS & WITCHBLADE made me buy this one. MINDHUNTER is just horrible. The drawing is not bad, but the story... wait! Which story? Because... was it all happening on their minds? Were they actually on the shio? What was the matter with the aliens and the predators? What was that talk about Earth on the future being populated by aliens and it being because of Pezzini? Why did Jackie had to go along? I just found myself "reading" a story that didn't make any sense but for the fact that hey were inside a space ship... or maybe it was all happening on their minds... and they were hunted by aliens and an evil hologram. Something like that.

Comic writing at its worst,

This review is from: Aliens / Witchblade / Darkness / Predator: Mindhunter (Paperback)
Mindhunter is a perfect example of why comics have never really been accepted as a legitimate form of art. The artwork isn't bad, but the writing and story are absolute rubbish. From beginning to end, I had trouble just figuring out what the heck was going on. It's a struggle to connect the logic from one frame to the next. It's as if the writers just decided to throw in every sci-fi cliche they could think of and hoped it all worked out in the end. This book is supposed to be a sequel to Overkill, the first book featuring the Darkness, Witchblade, Aliens and Predator, but there is no continuity at all between the two books. The only reason one should buy Mindhunter (even the title doesn't make sense) is if you have to have all the books featuring your favorite character. Otherwise, save your money. Well, I suppose if you're interested in seeing Sara Pezzini in her weakest and most pathetic form, that would be another reason to pick it up. My advice: steer clear.

Awful, yech!,
This review is from: Aliens / Witchblade / Darkness / Predator: Mindhunter (Paperback)
I don't know much about Darkness or Witchblade. And I didn't learn too much about them from this. What I did learn is that David Quinn wrote a story that was awful from beginning to end. I still can't figure out what happened. Was it all in their minds? Were the Aliens being mind-controlled? WHAT THE HELL WAS GOING ON???
Terrible.
