    For my money, this is shaping up to be Dark Horse's best MOTU comic book offering to date. Which, given their stellar track record to this point, is quite a statement. Packed with thrills, action, drama and plenty of clever nods to previous source material, this is a series you owe it to yourself to check out. Read Full Review

    Tim Seeley’s groundwork in the debut issue takes a backseat to plot movement and great action scenes here. Even with this change, Seeley’s script continues to offer MOTU enthusiasts and new readers alike ample opportunity to enjoy what’s happening. Eddie Nunez’s art and Brad Simpson’s color take a lot of cues from the Netflix series that inspired this book and that’s for the best. Everything looks so damn good on the page you can’t help but read page after page to see what’s awaiting you next. This team is turning me into a MOTU fan and I wasn’t expecting that to happen so quickly!
