  The Daomu of the title are a specific group of tomb robbers that serve to protect the balance between man and nature rather than just steal for their own benefit. Presumably, this is where Sean will be heading, and with and with his father's murder to solve and enemies to fight, it should be a great journey to read in future issues. This was almost a perfect first issue, with plenty of story set-up covered while introducing more than enough mystery to keep anyone happy, with art to match. Read Full Review

  The most brilliant part of Daomu is definitely the art. The art team was led by Ken Chou, the creative director of James Zhangs Concept Art House, whose name you might recognize from their work with the World of Warcraft and Magic the Gathering franchises. Every panel is incredibly detailed, to the point of creating a cinematic effect. It would be easy to translate this book into an animated series or film without having to change the style.

  Beyond these few negative points, the rest of the book moves quickly, and readers can really get swept up in the pace and mystery of the story. This is definitely worth checking out. Read Full Review

I suspect "Daomu" reads better in a collected format, if only because we'll get to the heart of the plot much quicker, but even then I found myself hoping to just get a translated novel to read instead. "Daomu" #1 has the best of intentions, but it's not living up to the advance promise. Read Full Review
