		Such a great job was done tying the old and the new of the Plissken saga, readers can gather much of what is needed to know about the original story in the first issue.
		In short, Snake is one bad ass dude who is not a hero, but a down and dirty criminal that likes to buck the system and ends up doing heroic things out of necessity and not because he cares.
		Rodriguez presents that dark and dirty atmosphere that Plissken adapted to so well on the big screen and transfers it perfectly to print with a complimentary flow of action and William O’Neill’s fantastic storytelling, making this book one adrenaline rush after another.
