A great couple of issues, with both strong script and art throughout. I love the greyness in the morality throughout, no-one is entirely good with the possible exception of Angel. Angel as a character is very well defined and drawn, and you feel sympathy for her caught in a situation she cannot control, being used as a pawn by opposing sides. The art, by Ronilson Freire, has a nice retro feel to it, perfectly suited to the subject matter. Great alternate covers and text pieces as well. Read Full Review
A decent outing, but I expect more of a Hammer related comic. The story is good, but the visuals have got to be consistent. Read Full Review
