The Patriot
Bleeding Ink Comics
Creator: Jesse Grillo
Artist: Jeff Slemons
Article Writer: Warren David Wesson
Summary: Who doesn’t wish they had Superpowers. I would if I didn’t already have them. But for those who don’t have to wonder what life would be like being able to fly, have god like powers and be able to lift twenty tonnes. It’s great, until you are diagnosed with a brain tumour and are given two weeks to live. I’ve been putting bad guys away for my whole life. What do you think is going to happen when they find out I am dead? The world is in trouble that’s what. I’m terrified for the world. I am not afraid to die. I do not want to leave the world I love behind.
I’m going to have to become everything I hated to meet my maker with my heart feeling I’ve done the right thing. I’m going to have to systematically destroy my enemies. My lifelong superhero friends are not with me on this. Instead of a letter after I am gone, I thought you should know the truth my Son.
Hot Spot Time: Jesse Grillo is the creator of The Patriot.

A readers perspective, the story unravels smoothly. Quickly as well. The team working on this in 14 pages delivered the goods. I can only imagine what they could do given 120 pages. The art stands out. The colors, it's a beautiful book, but what I liked about it the most is the flow. The lettering. The editing. The choices of scenes used to tell the tale, it all worked together to give me a lot in a little. I am certainly waiting for another installment. I'm curious to meet some of the villains The Patriot is concerned about. More time and more ink the writer has set it up so there are plenty of directions to go.
I like The Patriot as a character. Imperfect, well intended.

He's a super hero of the highest order but the writer chose to let me get to know the person who was the superhero .. not the other way around, which was great.
The relationships he's forged with his Superhero friends , his relationship with his Son, Where's Mom? All these things made for a fun first read of a series I hope to see more of in the future.
