"AWAKENINGS II," Part Three
The Hammer is in Portsmouth. Alex learns the name of one enemy and the face of another. And Rowan's troubles only grow as both Samhain and the baby come due.
Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott are a dream team as they consistently deliver great writing and engaging art. January needs to get here, fast. Read Full Review
Black Magick #9 is a tremendous offering. Now that I've read this issue, I feel compelled to go back and pick up at least issues 6-8. I don't need to do this because I'm missing major plot points, the solid writing took care of that, but I want to because it's THAT good! Check it out. Read Full Review
Black Magick #9 takes big steps forward towards something bigger approaching. Through 'Awakenings II' part three, the enemy has been revealed, and an enemy has been confronted. That was more than enough takeaway for one issue, with the very end of the issue building up anticipation for the next. Does curiosity kill the cat, or the intruder? Read Full Review
A relatively slow issue, but with good emotional scenes and fantastic artwork. Read Full Review
Black Magick #9 will probably be a better read in trade, but still has enough character moments to make it worth reading in a single issue format. Read Full Review
I really liked this issue of “Black Magick,” as things slow down a bit to let Rucka and Scott further develop Rowan’s sense of confusion and amp up the tension for the next issue. Scott’s character “acting” is great, and so emotive. And, the ending was just gravy. Read this.
I'm growing more attached to Rowan as her vulnerabilities are exposed, but it's the final page that has me excited for the next issue.
