Bloodhound, no. 1-3, Dan Jolley and Leonard Kirk: The first issue of Bloodhound did not resurrect my faith in prison etiquette. The main character, Travis Clevenger, former cop and current prisoner, uses his beefy fingers to gouge out a fellow inmates eyeballs. The sockets spurt like a fountain, making it clear who th eponymous bloodhound is. Hint: it's the guy who is habitually coated in someone else's blood.
Clev is built like Dog the Bounty Hunter, with a worn-out face like Micky Rourke. He's released from prison so he can hunt a stalker with inhuman abilities. He is not subtle. When to men in a car are watching his motel room, he smashes a bathroom sink through their windshield.
If you like gratuitous violence and members of law enforcement who refuse to toe the line, you will love Clev. But more on him later. I've still got 4 issues to read, and I get the feeling that the rending of flesh will only escalate.
