The Forged #3

Issue 3 closes off the opening act of this series perfectly. It's a truly admirable balance of storyline, dialogue and incredibly well executed visuals that is everything a lover of the sci-fi action genre could possibly ask for.

It has been a hugely satisfying comic book iteration of the space marines vs. hordes of alien monsters sub-genre. Read Full Review
