Brown delivers fantastic art throughout the issue. The action is thrilling and I love the visual style of both the characters and the world. Read Full Review
Falling in Love has an easy to grasp concept and the mix of fighters from all kinds of time periods keeps it from reading like any other comic out today. Read Full Review
With an eclectic mix of genres and themes, the unlikely love story marches forward to new levels. Duggan builds another layer of mystery with strong storytelling. Brown, OHalloran and the team present the unstable and dangerous landscape with images that leave their mark on top of a catching premise. The hype behind this series is very warranted.

The debut issue of Falling in Love on the Path to Hell left a lasting impression on me, thanks to its riveting plot, vibrant cultural setting, and captivating characters. Having eagerly delved into the second issue, I found that while it mostly retained its charm, the storyline didn't quite hit the same high notes. That said, the plot's slight dip didn't dampen my enthusiasm, primarily because the characters continued to shine brightly. Their intricate moral quandaries and the evolving dynamics of their relationships are truly the series' backbone. It's this rich character development and the unravelling of their bonds that keep me eagerly looking forward to the next instalment. Read Full Review
Every action panel is a grimy, flesh-covered mess, making it abundantly clear that while it's not Hell, it's not much better. Read Full Review
Good issue, not as epic as issue #1 but it was still very good. I like the characters each in their own way, good writing, decent art. It has a very "Hell's Paradise" vibe to it, and that's a good thing.
This is a very strange concept, but I'm going to keep reading it -- perhaps because it is so strange. Warrior thrust together in purgatory to fight off hordes of hellspawn or else they will take over Purgatory. That's definitely creative if nothing else. Gerry Duggan isn't one for sticking landings, however. Let's see how it goes.

I liked the first issue a lot. Then we got this. It's not really bad, it's just not the story I'm looking for or that I want to invest time in. I'm willing to try one more issue to see what they try doing with it.
Ah, a book with an Asian female lead who never speaks. Real shocker from the (painfully white) guy who turned Lin Li into a terrorist thug and had Kwannon getting goo-goo eyes over Captain America.
Just dogshit writing. Avoid like the plague.
