I wish the main story was longer. I enjoy the classic super hero dialogue and epic moments. It's really good fun and demonstrates Clark's integrity as a father and leader. The super family is really coming together. The side stories aren't bad but just not what I am here for.

The overall design of this book is wonderful. The colonial looking armor and weapons, demons, fantasy and modern warfare all rolled into one plus that is expanded at the end of this issue for more unique looking character designs. It's wonderfully violent and the characters seem pretty earnest. I am reminded of classic Spielberg or even stephen king films about a group of kids on an adventure. It looks like we are going to see more of them as they grow through this unique world being built here. I look forward to more.

The story telling draws you in with its gimmick of telling two sides of the same story. When you're done with one, flip the book over and read the other. It's a fun and engaging way to really get into the world they are building. There are some creative ideas and it sets the stage by the end with a lot of suspense, making me want more. The art is a little dark with a constant use of hard black shadows that hide the faces of characters and for me it makes it a bit harder to connect with them. Overall I am onboard for more

I was happy I got to finish the series. It hasn't been the best but I found some joy in it. This last issue offers a twist but the ending felt rushed. We don't really get a cathartic ending either, though it is a happy one. I thought the concept and plot served well but the guts of the story left some to be desired.

Absolute blast so far. The descriptions of what the main character is experiencing after adopting the armor (or maybe the armor adopted her!) Gives the reader a sense that we are along for the ride as witchblade eviscerates the worst man has to offer.
