  Slaine should need no introduction, the character has become part of comicbook lore. Slaine is a Celtic warrior king with the ability to warp spasm into an even fiercer warrior. Over the years Slaine has changed, as have the tales. I am not a fan of the current story line, I'm afraid. It seems to be a pure hack and slash fest. The art is glorious but...well perhaps I'm not being fair this isn't my favourite type of tale. Also I'm always remembering the Slaine I remember from the past. Many of the stories that Mill's has presented before have been magnificent, intelligent and bloody. We've walked through Celtic legends and glorious renditions of both battles and landscapes. This might appeal to you though so don't be put off by my review. I will wait for Mill's next offering which could well be another to whet my appetite. Read Full Review
