Robyn Hood: Wanted #1

May 10, 2013

Overall, I am not certain where this miniseries is heading. By the end of the first book, there was not enough narrative tension or build-up to excite me for the next issue. Sadly, this seems to be another chance to put an attractive woman in tight clothing and watch her jump around. I do urge you to keep in mind that this is an introductory issue to a series, which almost always suffer from building or building upon, a world for the reader. However, with only 5 issues in the series, the book is going to have to make up some ground very quickly in order to be successful. The artwork was a problem for me, but this might not be an issue depending on your preference; regardless though, there are times where the character movements and actions just do not look natural or fluid. It will be interesting to see where the next issue takes the miniseries, but for now, I'd consider picking it up for the nice cover only.

Ten Grand #1

May 22, 2013

The first issue of Ten Grand reads like a "How-To" for kicking off a new series. Some of the themes and characters will seem a bit familiar, but that isn't a bad thing. They are quickly built upon so that the scaffolding doesn't show. If I had to recommend one issue of one new series to pick up, it's this one. Do yourself a favor and jump on board this thing while it's still on the shelves. Ebay prices are way too high on excellent first issues to try and get this sucker later.
