Might have to chalk this up to "I'm not the reader for this book." It's mostly fight scenes which isn't really my thing unless they're very interesting. But I did like the flashbacks and his weird father--it was what kept me reading.

Obviously a guy with the last name Lombardi must review a graphic novel about football, or more specifically, a football player beating everyone up like it's UFC 1. Anyway, I received this free ARC from NetGalley, and my review is voluntary

The synopsis provides a good overview of the story. One night during a big game for his team, star football player "Fearless" Chuck Fairlane got himself into a scrap. The opposing team's mascot provoked him with a verbal exchange, so Fearless came in like Miley Cyrus on her wrecking ball and just started laying out everyone on both teams. Some back-door politic and legal help got Fairlane out of trouble, but his career was now in the drain.

Time skipping to the future where our fan favorite is now a football coach at a high school, simply trying to live his life, we now encounter the mascots coming after him, but for what reason, we do not know. Fearless takes up the challenge, and begins the fight right back. No mascot unpunched, no rock unturned.

This was hilarious, through and through. There's some twists and turns in the story, which helps with character development, but when the action is on? Better duck because a few teeth just flew. A very fun read, and highly recommended.
