Thank you to Netgalley for a copy for an honest review

I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend and I can’t wait to buy a copy for myself 🙂

Rating 4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This just really didn't end up being for me which is totally ok! The story didn't land like I wanted it to, but I thought the artwork was good. I'd definitely give another book in the series a shot.

Thank you Netgalley and BOOM! Studios for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

0.5 Star.
WOW!! That was just the worst comics I've ever read in my life! My eyes are hurting me right now.

I recieved an ARC of BRZRKR Bloodlines from Netgalley.
To start this adventure off right I read the original 3 Graphic Novel run first. This series is incredibly brutal in the best way. Very graphic, very raw, and through all of that so much heart comes through in the story. The character is Conanesque with heart and a lot of detention. The stories were well told and plotted out. I love that it was broken into two seperate stories, and while I liked the second one more the first one still has a lot to give.

There is also a novel coming out set in this same world that i have been kindly given an ARC to and I am looking forward to that as well! I want to know so much more of this world and I hope we get more volumes of Bloodline soon.

I had a tough time putting this graphic novel down. Both stories were a bit intense, but took me on an amazing adventure. We see this character has been through much, and it has changed them over the years. Along the way they have made some hard decisions, ones that came with dire consequences. As this graphic novel came to a close, it was clear these adventures have only just begun.

This book contains two stories of B.'s past that show that violence has always been his bread and butter, even when he had carved himself a home or thought he'd found love. They're deeply emotional and show that there are worse monsters out there than B.
I'm only giving this one 3.5 stars even though I love the stories and think the writing is excellent, but it's so incredibly and unnecessarily bloody. I get that it's all about how dangerous B. is, but is it absolutely necessary to see guts, brains, and body parts on almost every single page?
The art is good and there are amazing images that made me go back to enjoy them after finishing the story. The faces are a bit wonky at times and the female characters are hard to separate at moments, but it kind of works for the story.
I honestly think the stories could have been told just as effectively without all the gore, but that's a personal preference.

Happy thanks to NetGalley and BOOM! Studios for the read!

A short two-shotter from B's past: (1) fighting Cthullu in Atlantis and (2) destroying a kingdom, as told by its sole survivor. Fans of BRZRKR should enjoy it but it lacked some of the underlying pathos of the other works, making me wonder if Reeves had less of a hand in the writing.

This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

As a huge fan of Keanu Reeves amd the BRZRKR series, I was excited to delve into this new issue. I enjoyed the characters and the story. The pacing and the plot twists was epic and intriguing.

The art style was a bit different from the other issue I'd read but it was incredibly done and you could immerse yourself into the world and follow the journey of the characters.

I have heard of this series and have been meaning to read. Thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to see what it is all about. It was fun, violent, campy, gory, and a bit out there! Surprised to see some Lovecraftian influences. I got exactly what I expected to get from this ARC.

Finally an American comic worth picking up. As a lifelong comic fan pickings have been slim lately, but the team that worked on BRZRKR has brought something not seen in American comics for a long time. Raw emotions and a heartfelt story . This story reads more in the vein of a manga, the closest I can come to it is Berserk. Violently beautiful, the artwork sticks out at first, but as I was reading it felt like I was 14 again reading early issues on McFarland's Spawn run. Now time to find all the issues of this title for my collection.

Art style is good, but compared to the original graphic novel, these two one shot stories are kind of meh. I can understand giving a sort of insight into the characters past, but didn't think the stories were that interesting or engaging.

Certainly not at all written by Keanuweenie, this proves to be two extended one-shots about a quite yawnsome, invincible warrior, who feeds off the blood, energy and glory of defeating all-comers who want to invade Atlantis and steal her gold. He also protects the King, and has done for decades, but in the first story the King is in with the wrong crowd, who – oh crap, it's a Cthulhu story. Well, I clearly ought to have known, I guess, after all, this is going to be a huge Nutflux thing, according to the blurb. I don't give a single hoot about that, as I'm here for this book and this book alone, and the first story is not great – the woman narrating having more of the feel of one of those scene-setting Free Comic Book Day volumes, as opposed to the feel of something written for our enjoyment.

The second piece is set in more of an Arabian desert, as another King gets hold of our man and thinks he and his blood-rage are tameable, and an asset to be stored away until needed. It's not an idea shared by the Queen, who nicks him and scarpers with him, proving that this bloke is clearly a very Conan-styled warrior, able to crop up in all sorts of environments and with all sorts of fit women, before doing some hack and slash for different reasons and moving on. This is the better piece, for having a bit more oomph in the narrative voice, even if the alleged twist is as predictable as a hand wafting among the barley being a dead man's.

None of this is dreadful, but nothing here ever smacked of pulling me in to the main series, and I doubt many serious fans of that could hand-on-heart swear that any of this was close to essential. Conan books are generally 'you've read one, you've read them all', and as I say this has much DNA in common.

I guess this wasn't what I was expecting....I really enjoyed the original BRZRKR series. This one is a "spin off" of the series set in the same world with known characters but written and drawn by various people. It was terrible, it wasn't great.

This is a must read for fans of Keanu reeves. His character takes on larger than life battles. The story is told with vivid and rich illustrations that elevate the story.

This comic book is basically a Keanu Reeves fan going ham and making a character in his likeness be at the same power level as a god. The hilarity ensues when you realized Keanu is a co-author and that fanboy is himself. I saw other reviews saying that this is an egoistic self-insert, but I disagree. The self-insert makes this the most glorious meme of all time and I loved every second of reading this.

I don’t even watch Keanu Reeves films, but I know how well loved and famous he is for being a bad ass and this is that but scaled out of proportion 10000 times. The art in this goes so hard.


The art is violent and super detailed and I think it’s absolutely incredible. I was always going to five star this if just for the art.

I know that this is supposed to be this serious story about an unkillable godlike man who can take on Cthulhu and millions of men all at once, but I found it so hilarious. It’s the definition of someone having way too much power and basically if you see him well, that’s the last you’ll see of anything.

The writing isn’t particularly special, but this comic really isn’t about the writing. You could literally look at just the art by itself and tell what’s going on. The art is super awesome and I can’t understate that enough. Truly this comic is exactly what it looks like and for me it was all I need it to be.

I thought “omg omg omg”, multiple times while reading this. It’s a crazy outlandish ride and it’s so so fun. Sometimes I need that. Just some good bloody fun. Something so outlandish it can’t be taken seriously.

BRZRKR: Bloodlines features two historical accounts of B's life and his trials. I loved these stories. The art was amazing and bright. The stories added more depth to B's character and I hope to see more of these stories!

Keanu Reeves meets and battles Cuthulhu over Atlantis.
For the fans of Graphic Novels is a quite exciting read. I enjoyed both of the stories, with the second to be more complexed and have a great twist. Unute is nuclear-raged bloodthirsty immortal war-machine who can't be stopped by anyone but yet he is betrayed by the people he meets in his life. Nice artwork, nice stories.. It intrigued me to search and read the rest of the series.


Many thanks to Netgalley and BOOM! Studios for the ARC

Here we have some kind of immortal berserker with the face of Keanu Reeves killing and destroying everything and everyone in its path. The book consists of two self-conclusive stories where our hero..., well, just say that when they adapt this they will need tons of fake blood. The first of the stories, with Keanu... I mean, the immortal berserker as the protector of Atlantis is too simple, too stereotypical, with the big monster, the non-stop fights and, yes, the blood. The style and the pace is nice, and you have Keanu..., but it's just ok, a three stars affair. The second is way more interesting, more original, with a couple of 'surprising' moments and where the plot, characters, and delivery is way more satisfying than in the first story. Closer to a four star affair. However, when thinking about the volume, this is just a classic old-fashioned graphic novel, and a little more originality would be welcome.

The art is pretty good for what it is: Keanu, blood and dead bodies everywhere.

A sold effort.

Two stories of random civilizations that Keanu wiped out with his bloodlust. First he fights Cthullu in Atlantis and it's ridiculous. Then he destroys another ancient civilization by being the world's biggest dummy. There's one part where he hatches from an egg and I was just wondering WTF. The art in these two one shots is excellent. The story not so much without Keanu actually in them to entertain me.

Considering I only ever knew Keanu Reeves as an actor I was quite intrigued when I read his name on a comic book.
"BRZRKR: Bloodlines" includes two stories that are quite gorey but absolutely gripping from start to finish. This also is due to the
amazing art style. A true Must-have for every comic book enthusiast!
