You've heard the story of Arthur, Guinevere, and Lancelot-a tale of love both courtly and true. Now envision that love unfolding in a version of Camelot crawling with demonic receivers and unnatural horrors! Love itself takes a dark turn as jealousies unfold and grim thoughts of murder and betrayal take root in the minds of kings.
From writer Cullen Bunn (X-Men Blue, Deadpool, Venom) and artist Mirko Colak (Punisher) comes a Lovecraftian take on the Arthurian legend that HAD to be told at AfterShock Comics.
Unholy Grail caught my attention in a big way with the first installment and checking in on it here in the third just reinforces that there's something fun to be had here, albeit in a dark way. My enjoyment of Bunn's works are kind of hit or miss but this one is firmly in the hit category as we see this tale of the Knights of the Roundtable in a new way. The script keeps things moving, the characters are interesting to see how they react to what's going on, and I love the darker take on it all. It's Mirko Colak's artwork that just elevates it to a whole other level, however, and is the kind of work that really needs to be seen and understood in how to approach this kind of project and others like it. I love the character designs and settings and just how everything is put together from top to bottom here. Read Full Review
Love the lettering: shows mortal versus demonic/other worldly. Read Full Review
