The Siege
Traveling westward, looking for work and running from her past, Dr. Jenny Hanover has arrived at the surprisingly prosperous fort of Turtle Island.
Not exactly tricked (but perhaps taken advantage of) by the fort's manager, Ernie Martinez, Hanover agrees to train the fort's militia in close-combat swordsmanship -- a skill they lack.
Hung over and grouchy on a blisteringly hot morning, Hanover is teamed up with Master-at-Arms Dave Rogers to scavenge steel for new militia blades. Far from home, the salvage squad is attacked by a brutal gang of robbers and chased overland back to Turtle Island. more
Overall, a pulse-pounding second issue that becomes more interesting with each page turn. The story by John Pence is exciting. The art by the creative team is simply stunning. Altogether, a story that simply rocks. Read Full Review
At its heart, I feel like The Surgeon #2 has a good core story. Dr. Jenny could be a very cool character if they let her breathe a little bit. I know from the first issue that she is awesome; you don't have to keep reminding me every page"that makes her less cool. The art has a lot of fantastic detail and does a great job of building this world. It just has some technical difficulties that do not fit well with the sequential storytelling. There are some really good things at the core of The Surgeon, but there are also many flaws as well. Read Full Review
