From the pages of Vampirella and Sacred Six comes Nyx, daughter of a human and the mad god Chaos himself! Nyx's mortal side has been growing stronger, troubling her with all-too human emotions. Fortunately (for her), there's still the side of her that transforms into a demon of living flame...and requires her to feed on the life force of living beings to survive.
Can a half-demon find her place in our world...happiness...even love? Probably not, as she's about to get dragged into her dad's workplace problem.
This is a great opening chapter for the character of Nyx. Nyx is a complicated character that has a lot of aspects about her. She is really neither good or evil. She is just trying to find her way, deal with who she is and survive or not. Nyx only wants to be human but can her demonic half and her fellow demons allow her to be who she wants to be?

NYX #1 is a fantastic jumping-on point to get to know the half-human/half-demon with a cursed hunger for life energy. Gage paints a surprisingly nuanced and complex version of the character that tells you everything you want to know about her origins and motivations. While the central conflict of the arc is only teased, theres plenty of story to build curiosity and anticipation for whats to come. Read Full Review
Gage's script is solid enough once it gets past the awkward introduction, but it also feels like we're racing through some things quicker than we need to. Borstel's artwork feels similar in a way in that it has some interesting elements to it but that it's not sure what it really wants to be just yet and how to define the look for our leading character and the book in general.

Your mileage may vary on the artwork as its decent enough but the aggressive titillation may come off as distracting. Read Full Review
