The final chapter of Brides of Helheim unfolds! Rikard, Sigrid, and Kadlin stand together against the demonic forces of Raevil, the mad warlock.

Bringing an end to this second volume, Brides of Helheim #6 concludes on a very high note. Overall, the series has been dark, sensual, violent, and just more compelling than any other fantasy horror adventure series I've read in some time. Cullen Bunn has taken all the elements of a Conan title, and incorporated his personal style of method storytelling giving us pure horror brilliance mixed with his bizarre fantasy vision bringing us witches, warlocks, undead, Valkyries, and ungodly beasts. One of the better limited graphic novels to come out so far this year, Brides of Helheim is truly worth the read. Read Full Review
It is perhaps best to describe this series as one which always left the readers guessing even though the plot seemed fairly basic. There have perhaps been a few strange choices along the way by the creative team, but with this issue as reference, they all work well together in retrospect as they built towards the setup for the following series. This series is one which has flown under the radar for a number of reasons, but really any fan of the medium that can handle a bit of gory violence should be reading anything that these two put together for this group of characters.
