Nyx once killed Vampirella. More recently, they were tenuous allies. When their paths cross again, will it be as friends, enemies, somewhere in between, or all the above? How does Vampirella fit into Nyx's quest to learn how to live among humanity without harming them, when it's something Vampirella herself has never quite mastered? It could all become moot when old-school Vampirella foes the Cult of Chaos return seeking vengeance, both on Vampi and the disloyal daughter of Chaos who has rejected their mad god. (That's Nyx, FYI.) One thing's for sure - fangs, fists, and flame will fly!
Nyx is moving along well in its journey here and some formal crossover time with Vampirella early on was a given. What we get here lets the two of them spend time together to get a better understanding of the other and that goes a long way toward making for a fun issue. Just the whole spending time out at the bar and going to town with things makes for a lot of laughs and enjoyment. I do like that Vampirella seems to get regularly accosted by these low-level odd jobs out there that have access to older powers by hereditary means or just plain luck and try to be the one to take her down. It's no fun for her but there's a kind of weariness about her at times that's fun. Nyx is looking to move in an interesting direction from here but I'm being cautious in trying to read too much into her motivations at this point. Read Full Review
NYX #3 continues the story of Nyx trying to find her place in the world to live a normal life. The art is fine, and the shenanigans that happen when Nyx reaches out to Vampirella for help are amusing, but the story doesnt feel like it has a direction yet. If the goal is to have a series that grows and evolves the character, something important needs to happen to get things moving. Read Full Review
Credit to Marc Borstel for drawing these pieces that show a different side of two of Dynamite's flagship characters. But with all those gorgeous variant covers, Dynamite might want to reconsider their main, because comics are not sold by the art inside, primarily, but by the cover; and whoever selected Rose Beech for the main almost made me miss out on the beauty inside.

Nyx #3 has a fun little crossover with Vampirella but seems to brush off all of the serious subject matter that had been in the first two issues. Read Full Review
