MINISERIES PREMIERE
In 1003, Leif Erikson established a Viking settlement in Vneland (present day Newfoundland), a strange new world of plenty but populated by an indigenous people and something else...something UNNATURAL. Twenty years after the original expedition ended in disaster, a new attempt to settle this wilderness is made. Ulf and his hardened tribe of Vikings soon discover that the whisper of creatures who are both human and beast are not primitive legend, but death-bringing reality.VIKINGS versus WEREWOLVES! The real reason the Vikings fled North America! A tale of blood-curdling horror and barbaric adventure from Eisner Awar more
VIKING MOON #1 isn't just Vikings versus werewolves. It's a thundercrack of myth and monsters that lands every blow, even if the Norse never learned to shut up and swing. With art that howls and a script that broods, it's both a history lesson and a nightmare. Perfect if you like your sagas with an added dose of lycanthropic bite. Read Full Review
These are the Werewolves I love. Big, humanoid, and scary! Frusin just takes this whole issue to the pinnacle of horror and history! The story itself is standard. It's Invaders vs Natives. Man vs Nature. I do love the character work with Ulf. He feels larger than life and yet very real. I feel like this is a book that will get better with every issue. Get in while you can, readers!

Viking Moon 1 was an impressive kickoff to this new five-issue mini-series, which seems like it has a ton of potential with this unique premise. Read Full Review
The idea is a lot of fun and its been a great deal of fun seeing the story establish itself on the page. Theres a real danger in not focussing on the natives, though. Treat them too much like an abstract ofrce of nature and the whole series is going to falter. A story like this really needs all three elements to hit the page in equal force in order for it to feel well-balanced. Hopefully future issues can take turns focussing on the natives and the skinwalker werewolves. Read Full Review
Viking Moon #1 is mostly set-up, but its largely well-executed. There is more exposition than is necessary which hurts the dialogue. But the story is well-paced and the art is engaging. It carries a lot of potential for future issues and is worth a look by fans of supernatural horror. Read Full Review
After contributing to AWA's Sacrament (which today only cares about woke), Frusin returns in this miniseries that is also obscure.
Great story with brutal beautiful artwork.
