Pantha: The Blessed and the Accursed

by Tom Sniegoski, Jeannine Acheson, Igor Lima (Artist)

A cruel Egyptian queen eternally cursed to transform into a savage beast. For millennia, Pantha has endured her punishment for angering a powerful goddess, hiding herself away from the world and the ugliness of her humanity. But now someone-something-is killing the gods, and now so it falls upon Pantha to save the pantheon! In exchange for her help comes the promise of redemption and freedom from her curse, but even that comes with a price! Featured in her own series for the first time in a decade, and spinning out of the pages of SACRED SIX, Pantha's back!

[Chad · Rating 3 out of 5]

This version of Pantha seems stand alone even though it says she's spinning out of Sacred Six. Something is killing off the old gods and Pantha's curse is apparently the only thing that can stop it. It's a strong beginning but a weak finish. It feels like this was supposed to be a longer story and it had to be cut short. The art is this is pretty good. The one thing that drove me nuts is that the main covers all showed Pantha as a blond when she's of Egyptian descent and portrayed as such throughout not only this comic but every other comic she's ever been in. How could no one catch that?
