Raise Hell! Issue #1 Review

It’s summer vacation and best-friends Victor, Miri, and Reeves don’t have much to do. So they pool in money to buy a kit for summoning a demon from a questionable source, and end up having their own personal demon from hell!
Issue #1 of “Raise Hell!” by Jordan Alsaqa and Ray Nadine is only 25 pages long, but it’s a quick, fun read that concludes in a manner that allows it to stand as a short story on its own. Readers don’t get to know much about the three friends, although Victor and Miri are the cheery, enthusiastic, and optimistic kinds, while Reeves is more grumpy, angst-y and cautious.
The artwork is vibrantly colorful, and the illustrations are a little like how the new Archies comics looks these days. In-fact, Reeves looks like a tweaked version of Jugheads, complete with a beanie-like hat and a lock of hair falling on his forehead. Victor and Miri on the other hand have more distinct personalities as far as their character illustrations are concerned, so at least it’s easy to differentiate the three of them from each other.
Victor, Miri, and Reeves making a blood pact to summon a demon is perhaps the craziest event in “Raise Hell!” And given the title’s hint, they indeed succeed in summoning a demon, but the real surprise lies in the type they summon! With its short length, issue #1 manages to be an entertaining start for this demon-themed fantasy series, which is mostly light and comical in tone.
Rating: 4 on 5. Raise Hell! is also on Kindle Unlimited.
