Let me start this review by saying that this one is just a preview for the entire comic book. And I read it because I wanted to see if the full comic book was worth the money and time I would spend on it. And I’m gonna give you the answer for that at the end of this review.
This preview sets up a thrilling narrative, which is blending elements of action and suspense with a unique twist. I personally found it to be very interesting and fun to read. I gotta admit here that this preview hooked me in, and I will for sure read the full version of this comic book.
The concept of this preview is innovative and it had hooked me into the world where surprises await at every turn which this preview gives us.
The pacing of the storyline in this preview is expertly handled, ensuring that the story maintains momentum and kept me interested and engaged throughout this preview.
The characters in tis preview are introduced to us with depth and complexity, particularly the protagonist, who is both relatable and intriguing. Which made me give this preview some extra points for doing.
The interactions between the characters hint at rich backstories and motivations which we would get more of in the full version. Which really helped this preview to get me very interested in reading the full version of this comic book.
The artwork in this preview is very standout feature of this preview. Because the artwork is combining detailed illustrations with a gritty, atmospheric style that perfectly complements the narrative.
This preview gives us the themes of identity, transformation, and morality which are woven throughout the narrative, adding layers of depth and intrigue to this preview. Which really I found myself liking a lot. Because these elements are thoughtfully explored, providing both entertainment and substance.
So will buy and read the full version of this comic book ? Yes I will. It might take some time for me to actually read the full version of this comic book because I have been way too optimistic when creating my TBR list for this year and I don’t know if I get the time to read the full version of this comic book this year. But I will read the full version of this comic book at some point in time.
