Does even the kindness of strangers come with a cost?
Avery has adjusted to his post WWII life in Alabama but when an altercation with some local boys leaves him hurt, an unlikely bystander steps in.
And while Carlisle, a white university doctor, not only offers Avery immediate first aid but free ongoing medical care... nothing is truly free, not even a stranger's kindness.

While issue 2 od Dark Blood was more back story and filler, I do believe it will take off from here. Rather they do this early on then later. The art is still great as is the writing. My only issue was that is felt short, like the first issue. Hopefully moving forward things pick up.
Another poorly paced issue that doesn’t cover enough ground and we still have no idea what this is supposed to be about. You need to give a reader some reason to continue and this doesn’t have a hook that makes me want to come back and finish the 6 issues.
