Comic Book Review – The Forgotten Queen #2
Rachel Bellwoar reviews The Forgotten Queen #2… The neat thing about having an immortal at the center of The Forgotten Queen is time is on this comic’s side. Issue one can (and did) eat through Vexana’s Genghis Khan years but that’s a blip in her long history. At the end it was teased she would […]

The name of Fearscape’s self-professed tragic hero isn’t a typo but it could be a lie, and that’s what makes writer, Ryan O’Sullivan, and illustrator, Andrea Mutti’s, new series so beguiling. Form matters. In fact, the opening page is all about how […]
