Whoa this was a pretty great first issue. Great art, solid dialogue, a very intriguing plot that's got me thinking we're going to get into some dark shit. This series is also pretty funny (The meme of the guy talking to the girl in a bar? Priceless) Overall, very solid first issue.
Fairly basic demon hunter family history revealed story. Kind of wanted more out of it. But I liked it enough to seek out the next issues. Best part was probably the reveal of father's partner. And I suppose the central scene of the living room tension was cute.Interesting point to end the issue on. Felt a bit cheesy though?
The story is pretty solid for a first issue. And the art, which is what bumped it up to a full 4 stars for me, was lovely to look at.The biggest complaint I have is Snyder's tendency to turn his comics into prose novels as he crams as many words as he can onto the page. The gist of this one is that a young woman finds out that demons are real and that her estranged father was the best hunter they had. Now the role of demon slayer has passed on to her.Dun, dun, dun...I'm definitely interested eno...
I was disappointed, to be honest. I guess I expected straight up horror, blood & guts, you know, that sort of thing. I might read the second issue of this, but I don't see this being something that I'll stick with. It's a bit too fantasy-coded for my taste.
DemonsThis is a new take on demons and angels fighting to save the world. It is a quick read, will read the next one.
A decent start to what looks like it could be a fun series. Greg Capullo's artwork is the main draw here and he absolutely doesn't disappoint, delivering another visual feast for the eyes. The story and characters by Scott Snyder are interesting and I'm excited to see where this one goes.
I loved this first issue. It’s no secret that Scott Snyder is my favorite. I just like the way he tells stories. And this is no exception. It was a solid first issue and can’t wait to read the next one. I also love Greg Capullo. I love his line work so so so much.
Great new story from Snyder and crew!Fantastic new offering on Comixology from Scott Snyder! Really interesting premise on the good vs evil storyline. Can't wait for issue #2!!
A fun start to a very reminiscent of the movie Frailty series.
Let there be light..and the big bang created everything.Not a bad start to a series and I found the trigger warning amusing considering what they are warning you about is not typical of many people (though extreme belief in anything can be scary as heck no matter how nice people seem to be.) With that said before reading this book you can expect profanity, blood splatter, an amputation of a child's arm (though it is shown in a much darker scene so not as graphic), science, and grotesque demonic
Asimer vs infernals. Comixology freebie. Suitable for teens and adults, occultism and profanity in both word and deed. Good color artwork, a little gory. A young girl joins the never ending battle between good and evil.
I read this book via Kindle Unlimited. Lam and her father were inseparable. Despite him chopping her arm off when she was a child after being bitten by a poisonous snake, she never held any form of animosity towards him. She knew she was loved. She knew her dad was godfolk. She knew she was safe. Until she grew up. And her life wasn't so filled with love and safety or god as she thought. Her father had been taking mysterious trips for work, coming home covered in blood, and never answering her
It's not often that I read single issues any more, but Scott Snyder I have a particular soft spot for. This was really enjoyable. The art really reminds me a lot of the design of both Scott and Greg's Batman run, with a little bit of Greg's work on Spawn.
I don't want to take it so serious ...Short review:Snyder says he wanted a good time, 90's action feel, almost one we aren't supposed to take serious and just enjoy the ride. By his unintentional theology, I fear more impressionable minds will become a cult following for a Halo versus Horn religion. Not truly, but as horror cultures go. I am intrigued with the elements of this story, the science, the god talk, the warriors of the apocalypse. As someone who has read much into scripture context, t...
Strong startThis is Scott Snyder at his best, doing horror comics and having self imposed boundaries that prevent the stories becoming farcical (which often occurred with his DC comics). This is a nice intro into a demon Hunter tale and from this introduction reminds me of a mix of "buffy" and "clean room". Special mention also has to go to Greg capullo, whose cartoon style works really well when switching to horror and whose sense of storytelling is impeccable.
I am too old for this format.I liked the graphics they are quite good. But I must admit I can't follow the story line. I am sure there are many readers out that can follow the story better.
Really captivating!Great art and colours and a really eerie story! Reminded me of Buffy the Vampire slayer and Evil Dead mixed together. Some great characters and scenes in this book. Well worth a read.
The legend is a thousand blades were forged and given to warriors across the land, and in time, the demon species were destroyed. Over the centuries, these blades have been passed down to warriors of every faith. Often the source of legends around mystical swords, axes, spears, they've been used to beat back resurgences of Horn. When a new Scott Snyder series drops I tend to sit up and listen. This series is another ComiXology original and is being released exclusively by Amazon (who recentl
When you go in blind, like I did with this title, it’s a nice surprise sometimes. Demon hunter, magical creatures, one hand is a weapon— these are not *completely* new elements to stories, but there are very few things that can be new nowadays. I’m looking forward to what this story holds. Redemption, I’m sure, is down the line. The art is great as is the humor.
So bad*ss!This is the most coolest chapter I’ve ever read! It has everything I could want in a story: great characters, great humor, great drama, and monsters! I recommend this story to anyone who is a fan of Spider-Man for the humor and Hellboy and Spawn for the monsters.
