Ricardo Delgado delivers a stunning, elaborate prehistoric parable that evokes classic spaghetti westerns and noble samurai tales of yore! Traveling through a dense swamp teeming with primordial danger, a solitary Spinosaurus aegyptiacus is the unpredictable and deadly antihero of Age of Reptiles: Ancient Egyptians.
Ancient Egyptians: Age of Reptiles #2 is a fairly drastic change of pace from its predecessor, and that may throw off returning readers. However, Ricardo Delgado handles the acceleration well, utilizing punctuated moments of violence to emphasize character traits and relationships. Colorist Ryan Hill is up to the challenge, balancing the naturalistic approach with thematic coloring that aids the drama of this tale. Ultimately this is another strong chapter in a delightful miniseries. Read Full Review
I had a lot of fun reading this issue, and Im very glad I continued with this series. You dont need to have read the first issue to enjoy and understand the second book, though it does add to the story. Age of Reptiles: Ancient Egyptians #2 comes out July 1, and I highly recommend giving it a read. Read Full Review
Delgado continues to put in some beautiful work here, full of detail, that really brings it to life in an engaging way and forces the reader to really try and adjust to this mindset of the material. Read Full Review
Really this is a series you need to read from start to finish. It would probably just come off as a nice art book otherwise. The downside for a reviewer is that you're really not left with much to say about it since the quality is so high. On that note, it's really freaking good and you should check it out.

Worth it if you get past the colours, and enjoy watching babies being eaten. Read Full Review
