I don't want to ruin the journey for you but this is one that you should definitely get off your ass and check out.Įgads - it’s been so long since I read a half-decent Kieron Gillen comic I’d given up hope that he’d ever produce another one again! But thankfully he has with the best artist working at Boom at the moment, Dan Mora - this is Once & Future, Volume 1: The King is Undead. <-an assy old broad who recently escaped from her nursing home. This one felt like it was fully formed.Īnyway, Duncan is this somewhat bumbling guy who gets dragged into a real-life Dungeons & Dragons quest by his Grandmother. A lot of times with these new titles, I feel like they come off as incomplete or sort of like a rough sketch. That? Honestly, that should be enough to pull anyone into the story.īut just in case you're still on the fence, Kieron Gillen also takes Arthurian legend and turns it on its head.įor example, the good King Arthur is back from the dead but this time around he looks like a reject from The Black Cauldron.įor the first volume of a completely new series, this had an amazingly good story arc and fantastic characters. Once & Future does something extremely unexpected by turning your grandma into a chainsmoking, gun-toting, monster fighting, badass. ![]()
