This is a comic that lets it be known very soon that the people behind it know what they’re doing. The story isn’t just interesting it is executed in a way that its natural flow makes every scene gripping. The art is expressive, original, and adds complexity to an already complex story. The issue ends with proof that the journey has just begun, or perhaps, it may be over before it starts. Read Full Review
At times upsetting and violent, this is an incredibly well-crafted start to a tale of humanity. Read Full Review
A slightly dense but brilliantly atmospheric and hair-raisingly tense debut issue with one of the most promising story premises of the year. Read Full Review
Kill Whitey Donovan is a suspenseful Civil War era revenge tale that is off to a frenetic start. The two main characters are desperate to escape, but are otherwise incompatible acquaintances just hoping to survive their first night of freedom. Read Full Review
Sydney Duncan has plotted a thoroughly pulpy western with this new series, featuring all the hallmarks of a gritty southern-set shoot em up though some might be a hair cliched. Read Full Review
On the whole, this is a real missed opportunity. There is a wealth of Western revenge stories that Duncan and Barahona could have drawn from, and an incredible number of strong, vengeful heroines that they could have looked at for inspiration. What we ultimately get, however, is a disappointing and easily forgettable effort that definitely wont be making it onto my pull list. Read Full Review
Really good story that’s setting up what looks to be a fun ride. Surpassed my expectations!
Not very captivating but I'm intrigued to see where this goes
