Quantum and Woody #3 – Pre-Order Edition – 2018 brings another high-energy instalment to Valiant’s wildly entertaining buddy-superhero saga. Written by Daniel Kibblesmith with art by Francis Portela, this issue expertly blends irreverent humour, superhero chaos, and surprisingly heartfelt moments, all while pushing the dysfunctional dynamic between the titular duo to new, hilarious heights.

In this third chapter, the chaos continues as Quantum (Eric) and Woody (Woody Henderson) attempt to navigate both their broken relationship and their bizarre superpowered situation. With their quantum-powered armbands forcing them to "klang" together every 24 hours or face complete disintegration, the tension between them remains as volatile — and entertaining — as ever. This issue digs deeper into their personal backstories and growing resentment, giving readers more insight into why they’re constantly at each other’s throats while still functioning (barely) as a superhero team.

Kibblesmith’s writing is fast-paced and laugh-out-loud funny, with smart banter and witty one-liners throughout. He keeps the tone light without ever undercutting the emotional core that keeps the series grounded. This issue introduces a few unexpected twists, layering in some darker moments that hint at deeper narrative threads yet to come. The character work is strong, especially in how it highlights the contrast between Eric’s straight-laced, duty-bound persona and Woody’s reckless, self-centred charm.

Francis Portela’s artwork perfectly matches the tone of the story — clean, dynamic, and expressive. Action sequences are fluid and energetic, while facial expressions and body language heighten the comedic timing. The Pre-Order Edition also includes exclusive bonus content, such as behind-the-scenes material and variant artwork, making it a treat for collectors and longtime fans alike.

Quantum and Woody #3 – Pre-Order Edition is another sharp, clever chapter in one of the most original and unpredictable superhero series on shelves. If you enjoy action-packed, character-driven stories with a healthy dose of absurdity and heart, this issue is not to be missed.
