Sentinel Squad O*N*E #3

Part three of "Tin Can Heroes" arrives with a cover by Pasqual Ferry that plunges one of the armored Sentinel Squad O\N\E mechs into a wild, overgrown environment — vines curling through shadowed trees as the massive suit crouches over what appears to be a downed foe, energy glowing from its fists. The subtitle "Savagery" says it all: this five-part 2006 Marvel series is pushing its human-piloted Sentinel program far outside any comfortable urban battlefield. With John Layman writing and Aaron Lopresti on interior art, it's a compelling look at what happens when cutting-edge military hardware meets something far more primal.
