Did you ever have one of those mornings when only the F word will do? Heavy Parker has, too! In the third and final issue of Pounded, after getting his ass beat, Heavy makes it through four whole pages of a lousy morning with just one single word to describe his feelings:
Pounded from Brian “DMZ” Wood and Steve Rolston is a quick read but a fun one. It’s much more guy-oriented than Wood’s work on New York Four and New York Five. We got the impression those were written for a young female audience who finds drama in things like texting and… texting… and more texting about texting… ARGH! But, in Pounded, we get rock and roll, tough talk, sex and drugs in the bathrooms of concert venues, brutal fist fights in the street, and plenty of F%#$! Man out with Heavy Parker today. Guaranteed to improve your f&$#%-ing morning!
