Ash vs. The Army of Darkness #1 builds upon the zero issue perfectly, acting as a brilliant introduction in it's own right. Giving us an awkward lesson from Ash, a mysterious subplot, and a odd twist near the end, the creative team do a marvellous job of getting this series off the ground, with there being plenty to look forward to as we await the next issue.

School's in session for Ash Williams in Ash vs the Army of Darkness #1, a lighthearted and animated introductory issue that applies The Real Ghostbusters approach to The Evil Dead thanks to artist Mauro Vargas' lanky cartoon stylings. Read Full Review
A key feature of the franchise for me is that Ash is only really cool in his own mind, and I'm pleased to see that the story team preserves the goofiness of the character without really knocking him down. It's clear Ash vs. The Army of Darkness is crafted by fans of the Evil Dead universe, for fans of the Evil Dead universe, while keeping the story accessible enough for the uninitiated to have a good time " and maybe take a trip to a tranquil cabin sometime soon to do a little, uh, light reading?

A nice first issue that successfully builds on the momentum of its prelude, this issue has a bit more action and a pinch more wit than last month's entry. It also does a solid job of moving forward to develop its own characters and voice--relying less on previous incarnations of the Evil Dead films and setting up fresh stakes and more outlandish threats than expected.
