FINAL ISSUE! Magnus battles THE BASILISK, an unstoppable entity bent on blasting our hero into atoms! Can Leeja and Magnus hit reboot on their entire world's corrupted infrastructure? And even if they do, what's Magnus' robot-dad's final, horrifying endgame? Is this the end, or a frightful new beginning? Hints in the final pages as Magnus "fades to black".
Magnus: Robot Fighter comes to an end, and though that fact alone is upsetting, the way in which the creative team conclude this tale it truly astounding. Yes, it's not without it's problems, but the exciting events, and character depth certainly make it one worth reading, whether you've been following the series or not. Read Full Review
Magnus: Robot Fighter comes to a decent enough close here with what it wants to do in dealing with the Basilisk and setting up an epilogue that shows how North Am changes and what happens a bit with Leeja and Magnus. The book as a whole had some very fun ideas to work with and started off with some great execution, but it felt listless as it move past the halfway mark of its run and wasn't sure what it wanted to do while feeling too convoluted in some ways while ignoring characters far too easily. I enjoyed the book as a whole though and was glad to see Magnus back in print and in good form, but I'm also hoping that this closes out this incarnation of the character and that another attempt is made at restarting it. I liked what the team here did overall, but I'm not looking for a continuation of it either. A fresh start so that this story can feel like it has a beginning, middle and end so that it feels properly complete. Hopefully we'll see Magnus again. Read Full Review
