Bloodshot Unleashed #2 is in Bloodshot's head.

[thanekos]

It's also in the antagonist's - a nuclear cyborg, one of the escaped decommissioned " living weapons " issue #1 put Bloodshot on the trail of.

He's only humanized in single-page intervals between Bloodshot's hunt for him, though - the internal thoughts that get the lion's share of the story are Bloodshot's.

Bloodshot was combing through " a full square mile of industrial decay ", his son in tow.

Damn Them All #1

[laughing_tree]

In American comics, you don’t have to go that far back to find the sorts of density we’re describing, which is fairly normal here. And it’s absolutely normal in the continent and was also quite normal in early superhero comics, like even the early Bronze Age stuff.
I think that there has been this gradual drift, and there is nothing wrong per se with decompression. I could I could name lots of really great decompressed comics that use it extremely well. The problem is that it has become such a ubiquitous vernacular that it has become synonymous with… like, the adjective I keep reading is “confident.” Like, “It’s such a confident issue."
And what that means is that the writer has not involved any sort of neuroses or any doubling back or any fussy detail. I would far rather read a neurotic comic than a confident comic because it has a voice, it has a soul, it isn’t just this sort of running on rails narratives that, as Charlie [Adlard] says, takes you half a second.
Anyway, that’s all just to give you the idea that we are making a comic that we want to make and we would like to read rather than do something to make life difficult for American readers. -- Si Spurrier
