Is there no end to the Chimera's reign of terror? Regan, a former member of the Chimera, and her past victim Hannah continue the hunt for Regan's brethren, but the shared memories that haunt them both may put an end to their quest. Meanwhile, cornered the other Chimera may have met their match... the State Police.
This comic has the right amount of horror, dread and Tarantino-type story telling (that's a compliment) that can easily be translated to the big screen as a movie. These kindred of the senses are scary. I am not sure how this vengeance tale is going to play out, but it definitely makes me more appreciative of all my senses. The "clean up" minister Barret at the end is scary. "There is always one left to tell the story"." Read this comic on the edge of your seat as it is written for you to do so! Read Full Review
Stranger ThingsThe Walking DeadThe Hills Have EyesI Need MoreBOOM! Chat has a video introduction of Basilisk on YouTube. It's a good behind the scenes look at the series.Check out Jonas Scharf on Art Station or InstagramBushwhacked, Episode 3 of Firefly, deals with similar themes of spiritual corruption.I'm hooked. Basilisk is a tale of revenge mixed with a little sci-fi and horror. It has strong characters and a quickly moving plot. The backstory of the Chimera, both their attack on Kingsly and before emerging from the mountains, is a constant cliffhanger. Read Full Review
Bunn seems to be one of the busiest names in comics right now, and he's putting out a lot of good stuff. That said, if I was only allowed to commit to only one of his ongoing titles, it would without a shred of doubt in my mind be Basilisk. Read Full Review
Ok, I've got to grips with the powers of each member of the group, I now want to see them take on Hannah and Regan. Bunn is old hat at slowly ratcheting up the tension and this fits his style and technique well. I am now fed up with diner massacres and expect the plot to move towards a conflict between the players' next issue. Read Full Review
Jonas Scharf delivers some jarring, disturbing and brilliant imagery throughout the story. The characters and action stand out and are eye-catching. Read Full Review
This is the issue that Basilisk readers have been waiting for. It has great buildup and impeccable timing. Read Full Review
Carefully measured and full of vibrant concepts, Basilisk #3 refuses to fall into the general dark, solemn trappings of the genre. Read Full Review
This feels like the first dud of the series so far, unfortunately. Read Full Review
Issue three is probably my favorite. It was interesting, you got to see the characters express themselves more while trying to sympathize some of them. The panels and art work were fantastic. I know Bunn is writing lots of titles right now, but this one is slowly becoming my new favorite.
Yet another mass execution makes this feel like a lot of filler, but at least a more backstory was established.
