This was really a nothing comic that did not add anything to the Eisenhorn series. Perhaps it leads into the game better than the rest of the books, but it really doesn't tell a complete story and the art isn't very good.

[Nicholas Sacco · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is a prequel comic that tries to tell us the story of how Eisenhorn met Lores Vibben and tracked down Murdin Eyclone on Hubris. Well...
When I think about Eisenhorn, I think about a great story, but this one is kinda boring and many details are wrong. Eyclone is called Eyeclone throughout the comic, Eisenhorn's special power sword made of pure energy has become a normal sword with crackling energy around it that can't even cut the wood of an Ork axe, Midas Betancore's needle pistols have become laspistols that fire like solid projectile weapons and many other bad things.
This could have been a great prequel comic. Unfortunately, it's not.
