Beskrivning

In the rough and tumble world of Super Pro K.O., professional wrestling is no joke. With contenders of every kind battling for glory on a nightly basis, there's tons of drama inside and outside the ring! Current SPKO champion and arrogant heel King Crown Jr prepares for a match against mysterious newcomer Bad Bad Butch O'Rowdy, who may care more about settling a personal score with Crown than the title itself. Meanwhile, hotshot Joe Somiano is getting used to the spotlight as his career takes off, but will it be stopped with the arrival of baseball superstar turned wrestler Romeo Colossus?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY -- Williams's third Super Pro K.O.volume is a love letter to wrestling's entertaining extremes, as an extremelylarge cast brawls (mostly) in the ring and (mostly) within the panels. Williamsdoesn't even try for realism, coming up with moves that should kill anyoneinvolved but just leave the characters coming back for more, launchingthemselves at both opponents and the reader's eyes. There's a loose plot aboutthe champion, noted “heel” King Crown, Jr., fighting against achallenger he once mocked early in his career, but the real draw here is seeingthe wrestlers whaling away at one another. The art takes Bryan Lee O'Malley'sScott Pilgrim style of dialogue box asides and text as physical objects andpushes it to 11, with lots of intricate illustrations, thick ink lines, and justa touch of anime inspiration. Readers whose taste aligns with the subject andartistry will be in for a treat. (July)
