Hockey Knight is an impressively long and well-drawn story about a rookie’s rough start in the hockey world. The drawing and narrative style is fairly standard Marvel or DC, but done well enough to draw you in and make you curious as to what happens next. The plot turns are occasionally groan-inducing simplistic though, such as when our hero gets laid almost immediately after his first major-league game. Still, male adolescent world views and superhero-style comic art do usually go hand in hand, don’t they? And seeing as this revolves around hockey, it’s a fitting (and technically accomplished) Canadian contribution to the genre. (LR)
