    David Marquez impresses with writing great characters and moving them in a grand story. It's even more impressive that he's drawing it all as well. This feels like it is heavily influenced by manga and traditional comics. I love that. The characters are relatable and the world is larger than life. It's a great balance. The final panel leaves me highly anticipated for what is to come! Read Full Review

    In a way, The Unchosen #2 isn't just peeling back the curtains on its fantasy world, but how its creator brought it to life. That's a special kind of magic in and of itself. Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff Aug 15, 2025

    There are so many elements of the basic premise of this series that feel like theyre echoing so many other elements of so many other series to have come before it. Its not quite where it needs to be in order to be something thats going to have its own unique impact unless Marquez is going to be able to find some unique presence Aida Between the art and the dialogue and her basic prsence on the page, Aida IS an appealing character. All of the basic elements are clearly there.. Its just a matter of getting her to. Read Full Review

    If you were doubting at the first issue, the second issue does make it easier. It reveals more what is at play and give you some idea what to expect in the future. The concept isn't mind-blowing new but the build up is always fascinating. I think you love it or you're not feeling it. I did definitely love it and I am looking forward to the next issue.
