Feb 24, 2021I have said many times, that Scout Comics have a diverse portfolio of comics, taking on the fantasy trope therefore is right up their cobbled street. Fans of Grimm Fairy Tales may enjoy a simpler looking book that actually feels the weight of trying to rid personal demons in order to bring someone back. Read Full Review

One of the most unique and original fantasy books I've read. Beautiful art and colors that perfectly support a gripping story of revenge told in a fresh way. It's clear the writer spent a lot of time crafting the story, characters and the world. Just the travel map alone with the various monster images and detail shows an investment in this realm that most books don't attempt. Can't wait for the next issue!

This book reminds me of something is killing the Children meets I hate Fairyland. The paper quality of scout comic books is superior to Marvel .This book has very beautiful artwork .Sad to say because I'm a Marvel fan. A very fun and intriguing first issue.

Well, it looks beautiful, but unfortunately the story is very much an unoriginal 'by-the-numbers' sort of affair. I don't get the impression the author has invested much time or effort into it.
