Overall this is a great read. Although nothing spectacular happened and Kiss only made brief cameo like appearances, it however was a fun read that sets the wheels of this series in motion. Amy and Kewber are great in this issue and I hope that continues. This issue is accessible by everyone, Kiss fan or not, that's the beauty of Amy's writing. Read Full Review

Kiss is back in comics. Given the band's history with the medium I expected more and got a lot less. This is the same band that once shut down an entire city when they put some of their own blood in the printer's ink of their first Marvel comic. That kind of showmanship is sorely lacking in this offering. While I'm glad to see that the band has returned to the medium it would have been nice to have my face rocked off by the sheer magnitude of awesomeness that is KISS. Instead I'll have to make due with an average comic and subpar coloring. Read Full Review

We wanted the best, the hottest band in the world and sadly, this time, we just didnt get it. Read Full Review

Even though I could care less about KISS' music, I still think that their brand could be interesting in comics. Dynamite's first stab at it is just a generic cash grab for aging fans that also read comics. I imagine this is a dwindling market of comic readers, but I could be wrong. It just seems like if it was doing well that IDW would never have let it go, like Transformers, G.I. Joe and a hundred other franchises that they run into the ground but make a ton of money off of. Whatever the cause, whoever the fan base, this comic doesn't do enough to hook a new generation of comic readers that don't listen to KISS and expect more from their comics. The only part of this book I liked is when KISS showed up like Zordon in Power Rangers. Actually, if it was that in the next issue I might be able to forgive this issue, but I kind of doubt they'll be given KISS mechs to fight evil. Read Full Review

While I don't know if it is possible to replicate the appeal of KISS music to the comic book page, this really misses the mark. Where is the fun? Where is the Rock ‘n' Roll All Night? Where is the Love Gun? This is an empty headed sci-Fi story with a KISS logo. Maybe future issues will actually bring the boys into the comic, but this isn't a promising start and I don't know why readers who paid to read this would pay again to actually see the character they paid to see the first time.
