Chaos is come again! This new instalment of the Harvey-nominated series ends with a broken Shakespeare at the mercy of the mad-wizard Prospero and Juliet fleeing her star-crossed lover Romeo, who has decided if the two are not meant to be then death is the only option.
Highly recommended, “Kill Shakespeare: Tide of Blood” #5 is a fantastic conclusion that will leave readers wanting more. Romeo changed from a drunken slacker to a heart-broken womanizer while Juliet has transformed from princess to a warrior. It's very hard to turn Shakespeare's characters into rock stars but Del Col, McCreery, and Belanger make it look easy. Read Full Review
I am interested to see where the next Kill Shakespeare takes us. The comic sort of alludes to the fact that they may bring in a new villain. Then when I reread the last couple of pages I think Miranda was referring to herself. With them already playing out Richard, Lady Macbeth, and Prospero it is hard to say who they could bring in that would be bigger than these three names. Maybe Caesar or Brutus? My vote is still for Lady Macbeth. Bring her back! Bring her back! She should just be the over laying villain at all times. I think she may have been Shakespeare's most villainous character. I still get chills thinking about when she sees the blood on her hands. Oh man. Read Full Review
