Reviews

[Scott · Rating 5 out of 5]

No surprises here - it’s excellent! The art takes a real turn, getting really dark (as in most of the pages are black) and stark, but it all conveys the unreality of the comic.

I didn’t think they could make Torquemada any worse, but here he’s the ultimate evil: a British landlord.

Recent Reads: Nemesis the Warlock - The Definitive Edition, Vol 4. A large format collection of books 7, 8 and 9 of the 2000AD series, as Nemesis and Torquemada battle across Earth's alternate pasts and we learn Purity Brown's origin story. The story is good, but the sub-Heavy Metal art struggles.
