This is a fantastic first issue that does everything a great pilot should to keep readers coming back. Read Full Review
The action DOES lag a bit in places and the culture of an old movie theatre isnt exactly a new setting for an action story, but Campbell does a solidly respectable job of making it all FEEL new as it all moves across the page with a fluid grace that involves ore than a bit of flashy stage-magic-style visuals to keep it all moving. Once again, Zatanna makes it tot he page under her own cover and it looks like a very promising run with an old favorite. Its nice to see Zatanna given top-billing again. Read Full Review

Jamal Campbell shows up and shows out with this first issue of the brand new Zatanna series, giving us a magical mystery tour with a brand new mystical villain, the Lady White, who has a wonderfully simple, yet elevated design, making me want to see more of her. The issue is a knockout, and Im very impressed with what Campbell has in store for us next. Read Full Review
Zatanna #1 showcases Jamal Campbell's sequential storytelling chops as he melds fairy tales, magic shows, and classic Hollywood glamor with the usual top hat, tuxedo, and fishnets shenanigans. It could use a little more story, but with his mastery of layout, color, and atmosphere, I'm not complaining too much. Read Full Review
Zatanna Issue 1 is a theatrical spectacle. Despite a confusing middle section, Campbell's magical adventure is a bold and beautiful auteur piece. Read Full Review
Zatanna #1 is a strong first issue. The last Zatanna ongoing was great, and this issues indicates for the most part that this is going to be a fun ride with some good characterization. There's just something about Zatanna. There's something to be said for the approach taken with Zatanna's "day job, that really works with the character as she balances the two different magic worlds she straddles. Read Full Review
i am genuinely floored on how good this series was. I like Zatanna's characterization (I always see her as a side character and not aleading character), and I'm surprised at how good Jamal Campbell's writing is. The art is of course beautiful and I am intrigued on how this will shape up
