If you love old school Sci-Fi stories then you are going to love this. A simple yet captivating story that I have found to be very entertaining. Issue three is full of suspense and action as Dragonion empire has found the Sharsrum and Grant is going to get a rude introduction. Read Full Review
Craig and Finestone layer the foundation of their expanding universe with an engaging issue. The introduction of more rogues proves dangerous through solid writing and strong visuals. This series has such a vintage vibe to it that if youre into superheroes, this should be on your radar for New Comic Book Day. Read Full Review
As Drew Craig's debut work in the industry, there is room for growth and I believe he does have the potential to grow into a much more competent writer and artist. Read Full Review
The Savage Strength of Starstorm #3is a mixed bag of fun and flatness. When Craig is focused on building out his characters, the book is wondrous. When that crosses paths with the larger epic building silently in the background, the book's lack of balance can feel omnipresent and diminishing. Read Full Review
Theres SUCH a strange and distinct reality being brought to the page by Craig. It has a language and reality all its own that doesnt quite feel like anything else. The style is really cool in places, but the story is SO derivative of so many different elements in the superhero genre that its kind of difficult to walk away from the substance of the story with any kind of impression at all. Given enough issues, it would be interesting to see where Craig is taking the story, but at the outset, its just kind of a weird visual exercise. Read Full Review
Stack another lackluster roster of Justice League knockoffs at the end of the issue, and it's apparent that The Savage Strength of Starstorm is dedicated to throwing half-baked ideas against the wall and largely ignoring its own artistic merits. Read Full Review
This issue just throws fifty new heroes and villains into the mix with no real fleshing out. Feels very generic. I don't want to insult but this feels like a couple of rich middle school students are writing and drawing their own comic and their parents are paying to get it printed. The first two issues had some promise but this issue drops the ball and falls into mediocrity.
