Brooklyn 1930. America struggles in the grip of the Great Depression, and ten-year-old Enrico is willing to make any sacrifice to take care of his mother. Even if it means taking a job in the one place he's forbidden to go... the ring of fire where dragons are trained and fought for cash and glory.
Naturally, a book featuring dragons better have some damned good dragon art, and Max Fiumara certainly deliver in that regard. The few pages that offer glimpses of these figures are impressive to behold. Luckily, that sense of detail extends to quieter sequences as well. The art is fairly exaggerated, yet also impressively detailed and laid out. After only one issue, Kelly and Fiumara have proven themselves to be a winning team, and it's one I plan on supporting, hopefully until the very end. Read Full Review

I also found the cover price to be a bit steep at $3.50 for a standard length issue, but to be fair were dealing with a talented and cohesive team. If they can play to their strengths and keep this story rushing forward I could easily see myself touting the next issue as a must-have. Read Full Review
