Synopsis:
Fred and Barney reunite for Mark Russell's modern take on Hanna-Barbera's most famous stone-age family! This new series starring the first family of Bedrock (and civilization, really) tells the story of who we are and why we do what we do as if it all began with Fred, Wilma, Barney, Betty, and the rest of the citizens of Bedrock. Shining a light on humanity's ancient customs and institutions in a funny origin story of human civilization, Mark Russell (PREZ) blends modern interpretations with Hanna-Barbera's classic character's, bringing a breath of fresh stone-age air. Hanna-Barbera has created some of the most recognizable animated characters of all time. As part of DC Comics' re-imagination of cartoons like Scooby-Doo, The Flintsones, Johnny Quest, Space Ghost, and Wacky Racers, these new series will be infused with modern and contemporary concepts while keeping the heart and soul of the classic animation.

Review:
I received this copy from Netgalley and DC Comics in exchange for my review. I was so excited and hyped up for this but I ended up only liking the first two comics in this volume...out of 6. I started off laughing and enjoying myself but then it just got really boring and went down hill. The subjects that were attempted to be touched on could have been handled better and the comic featuring the aliens could have been omitted in my opinion. That one just ruined the experience for me. I did enjoy the makeover and the modern snippets added into this classic but I wish it would have been better.
I would not recommend picking the whole volume up but I would recommend picking up the first two entries.
