Not bad. I'm not sure how this ties into the game, but it was an enjoyable short read.

I've never come into contact with World of Warcraft before; I thought it was massively overhyped and I avoided it so when I downloaded this I asked myself uh why. Turns out my reading instincts are better than my "just a hype" instincts because I loved this. The artwork is extremely pretty, the story line is gripping and dripping with betrayal, rebellion and trust. Bargaining with the enemy, questioning their lives... oh I'm a sucker for this. Definitely about to go read the next one in the series and will definitely be reading the whole series. An absolutely wonderful free find on Kindle.

Great!
I really enjoy it! It has a lot of twist in the story. I look forward to read the next issue.

Read this review and more on my blog, uncovered-books.
I thought that after the first issue, this second issue of World Of Warcraft would make sense, but it didn’t even follow on from the first. That being said, this second issue made a lot more sense and I was able to follow it a lot easier than the first.
The storyline was a very simple one, where the leader of the elven city is forced to decide between two impossible choices. Both come with their risks and rewards, but which is decided someone will not agree with.
The artwork was a tad more inconsistent compared to the first issue. I found most things to be distracting, and I was struggling to find out what the focal point of each panel.
This second issue made more sense than the first, even though it does not apparently follow on from it.

One of four comics released for the pre-Legion hype. Easily my favorite of the four, mostly because Night Elf lore is what I most eagerly dive into, and because I loved both Thalyssra and Elisande as characters throughout the expansion. This little story details the Magistrix's decision to lower the barrier around Suramar, and Thalyssra's first rebellion being thwarted. Reading this before playing the expansion was exciting; re-reading it now all I can do it nod and think "yup, that will end well huh."

In Suramar, the elves are consulting with the entrapped demon Gul’Dan.
The Burning Legion. Grand Magistrix Elisandre attempts to negotiate with Gul’Dan.
The demon demands that the elves remove the barrier and form an alliance. If they don’t, it will not end well for the elves.
Elisandre’s people are concerned about the Nightwell, and who can access it.
A lot of tell; not a lot of show…especially for a comic/graphic. Many more opportunities for some action scenes.
Nice color work. Cool contrasts. But some of the fonts are difficult to read.

An interesting, short comic with World of Warcraft lore.

I love the Nightborne! So this little peak into a little extra lore of the Nightborne was awesome!

Short story
Short World of Warcraft story but much better than issue one, felt like it was more of a complete story considering its length.

Eu gostei da história,apesar de ter caído meio de paraquedas sem saber muitas coisas,um ponto negativo é que a história é muito curta.

Really Great
I enjoyed this better then the 1st comic in the series. Well written and much more depth to the story. I would have to say my favorite so far.

Fue interesante, pero solo es bueno leerlo si juegas el MMO. el pequeño número de páginas no da espacio para crear tensión o conocer los personajes.

I miss Legion as an expansion. It was so nice back then.

I gotta admit that this comic book is pretty self-contained yet expansive. And at the same time it has a elegantly written, and visually spellbinding which made me love this comic book a lot.
The story of this comic book captures Suramar at its most intoxicating in a opulent, cloistered, and humming way.
The main character of this comic book has a empathy and tension to them. And at the same time the main character has a balancing duty, doubt, and defiance aspect to them which makes the main character have more depth and personality.
The narrative of this comic book moves with purposeful momentum, layering context and conflict without exposition dumps.
The conflict aspect of this comic book isn’t just good versus evil; it’s comfort versus conscience, security versus self-determination.

I'd wish the character would get a bit more complex instead of simply having the stereotypical good guy-bad guy- traitor theme and immediately jumping into the action. Granted, these comics are so short there isn't really much time to develop a character but still... It would be nice. I thoroughly enjoy World of Warcraft.

Obviously I didn't read this in German, but there is no entry for the English version and I'm too lazy to make one.
I play WoW, but don't normally read books about it. This I grabbed on my Kindle because it was cheap and I thought a graphic novel would be interesting to read. It was shorter than I expected, but I enjoy having the lore come to life in this way.

A very short, but fairly decent flavoring to the Warcraft universe. I wish these stories were longer, and I wish its characters were fleshed out, but oh well...

Catching tale!
This is another short attention span plus item. Not only are they free but they remind me of being a child again.
