Hands down the best action series made for the web.
- Ed Brubaker is a master story mixologist, effortlessly combining genres. In his current comic outing, the best selling “Incognito,” he takes a comic book progenitor, the pulps, and a pulp descendant, noir fiction, and pairs them like a scotch and soda. In Angel of Death he takes the crime comic genre and puts it squarely in the world of exploitative Grindhouse style cinema.
- Angel pairs two old Kiwi buddies. Zoe Bell and Lucy Lawless who first worked together back when Bell was only 19, and doing rolls and back flips as Lawless’s stuntwoman on Xena: Warrior Princess. Alone they’re kickin’ – together they just kick ass.
- Ted Raimi has a long tradition in the genre of blood, not only was B movie legend Bruce Campbell his childhood babysitter, but his brother Sam helped make him a legend as a demon on the movie Evil Dead.
- Listen closely to the soundtrack, and you might hear some familiar strains. Toadies platinum selling guitarist, Darrel Herbert, did the score.
