An exciting new Pathfinder adventure begins! When an expedition into an ancient runelord stronghold meets with disaster, the Pathfinder heroes find themselves working together with some of the setting's most notorious villains in order to survive and locate a priceless magical item. But even with their own lives on the line, can an agent of the sinister Aspis Consortium ever really be trusted? Brave the fearsome monsters and deadly traps of Hollow Mountain in the first sword-swinging issue from Pathfinder co-creator James L. Sutter (Pathfinder Origins, Death's Heretic), with art from rising star Tom Garcia (Mercy Thompson). Contains pull-out more
At the end of it, this does read far better than City of Secrets. Sutters approach is defter, albeit bound in what precisely can be done by the lore of the world. The ongoing character arcs continue to develop interestingly, and its all incredibly solidly put together, a couple of editing hiccoughs aside. Worth at least a browse thanks to the energetic artwork, and itll be interesting to see how the rest of this volume pans out. Read Full Review
There's not quite enough in the story alone to get me super excited about the next issue but I could definitely get on board for another outing with this eclectic crew. Mass mainstream appeal? Perhaps not, but given the last few pages there's a great opportunity to attract the gaze of some Avengers fans going forward. All the right players are there and the setting is fun, it's just a matter of tightening the story. A solid, entertaining and well balanced first outing for the new Pathfinder title. Hollow, it is not. Read Full Review
