The Rundown: Daniel’s quest brings him back to familiar faces and a growing darkness.
Dan is engaging in the second part of his quest. After taking an unconventional approach to the battle, Alter reveals that he is ready to travel to the Kingdom of Nightmares and Dreams. The lands leader Sirus is wary of another Epic entering their land as Alter attempts to convince him that Dan is different from any other Epic that has been before.
Dan sees Dalia again and the two get closer, but the darkness inside him continues to reach out to him. A darkness that will confront him when he is brought before a powerful entity.
The Story: Kudranski continues to craft a compelling and innovative story in this issue. Every elements of the story is engaging and the characters are interesting. I found myself going over the dialogue several times because there are so many riveting and thought-provoking moments between the characters. I love the way this series continues to grow and evolve and cannot wait for the next issue.
The Art: Kudranski delivers some beautifully detailed art that continues to blow me away with its intricacy and detail. I love the mixed media style of comic characters and cartoon characters and how everything looks unique.
