From the Publisher:
Born March 21, 1962 in Hueytown, Alabama, Mark Waid bought his first comic in 1966 at the beginning of TV's Batmania and has never once since entertained the notion of not buying comics. In 1987, Mark joined DC Comics as a staff editor and two years later left to pursue a full-time freelance career that spanned the 1990s and into the early 2000s. That period led to award-winning runs on The Flash for DC Comics and Captain America for Marvel Comics. In 1996, he co-created the Eisner award winning Kingdom Come at DC Comics. Since then, he has worked for every major comics publisher and has authored a broader range of well-known comics characters---including Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, the X-Men, and Archie---than any other writer in the history of the medium. With his encyclopedic knowledge of comics history, Mark also serves as an historian; he has published hundreds of articles and four books on the subject, and has fielded research questions from sources as diverse as Time, Variety, and the Library of Congress. Mark writes Ruse at CrossGen, nominated for a 2002 Harvey Award as Best Series and for Best Single Story, and for which Mark himself was nominated as Best Writer.
From Publishers Weekly:
Unlike most CrossGen comics, which revitalize or at least tweak pop culture cliches, this one-which features a sort of Sergeant Rock in outer space-approaches the computer game/military sci-fi model in a fairly straightforward manner. As usual, CrossGen's production values are first-rate. The art features dramatic, gleaming, Frazetta-style masses of metal and muscle. It looks great, although readers might wonder how space soldiers find the time to maintain their perfect physiques, and if black leather bikinis are really the most practical attire for barbarian warrior wenches. This volume collects the monthly issues of an ongoing series. Veteran super-soldier Sam Rey and his sexy warrior gal pal Roiya are part of a centuries-long war between humans and the lizard-like Saurians. Sam's talents (he was branded with a Sigil [see review of Scion Vol. 3, above]) have put him in command of the human fleet. He is so smart and brave that he might defeat the Saurians and end the war, which upsets the beings who distribute the powerful Sigils throughout the CrossGen multiuniverse, and who don't want Sam to overcome the Saurian Sigil-bearer so quickly. Accordingly, Sam is sent to another world and spends several episodes fighting alongside heroic barbarians against invaders modeled on Roman legionnaires. And so on. Finding fault with all this would be as pointless as objecting that a Big Mac doesn't taste like home cooking. When Sigil readers pull up to the drive-through window, they know what to expect, and they won't be disappointed.
