Absalom: Under A False Flag is grim, relatable and compelling and I cant wait to see how Harrys story plays out in the promised final third of the tale.

All told, Bennetts writing is of its usual high caliber and while this isnt an issue Id recommend to a new reader, its definitely an important episode in the unfolding story.

All in all, this is a quality first issue which promises an entertaining story to follow and would be a worthwhile purchase for fans of fantasy in general or Dragon Age in particular.

All in all, this isnt exactly reinventing the wheel, but the archetypical fantasy heroine is undoubtedly in good form.

All in all this is a fun strip which will amuse WWE fans of all ages, but especially the youth market that BOOM! Studios are obviously aiming at here.

Overall, this is a slightly disappointing one-shot. It's undoubtedly faithful to the source material but most of the stories are uninspired and the artwork is mostly by-the-numbers. One for fans of the Twilight Zone only.
