This series is absolutely fantastic. Great art and coloring. Amazing story. I can't wait to see where it's headed. Mikey and Brennan continue their hunt for the wizards from Terranos, and we learn some more of the secrets Mikey is keeping.
4.5 stars.
Its like Locke & Key on steroids. Also, this is finally a graphic novel that displays interesting alien fantasy creatures. As opposed to mundane background monsters with no visual swag. No more issues currently out. I am disappoint. Good recommend there booooogie.....Merged review:This issue gave me some Y: The Last Man vibes with a Saga type surprise ending.. Good stuff.
The second volume doesn't feel as strong as the first, but it's still a rollicking story, I want to know where it's going from here. Have I figured out a very important, later story twist? Probably. Still will be fun to watch it unfold (and the art is magnificent fun).
This was a bit a of whirlwind. It seemed like I flew through it, but I didn't get much substance if that makes sense. I loved what we got, but I think it just continued story lines from the first volume without much else going on. I do love seeing the parents storyline, and I hope it becomes a bigger part as the series goes along. I'm invested for sure, so we'll see what comes with the third volume!
While still readable and fairly-enjoyable, this second volume is considerably weaker and less intriguing than the first.What started as an interesting twist on the fantasy genre has become more of a by-the-numbers (and convoluted) mess, with little new information gained or growth for the characters.A dejected 3-stars for this; here's hoping the title turns back around for Volume 3!
Man oh man, it's hard to find someone to root for in this series. Everyone seems like a dick. Everyone who is "good" has some evil plotting behind them. The glimpses into the past, about Mikey growing up, is real interesting. I also still love the art, I think it's solid as hell. However the story feels all over the place. One second they're heading out to hunt. Next they're near a small town. The brothers together feel "okay" I never feel the real love of brothers there. The parents, which were...
No spoilers.Continues the story with more background being shed on Mikey, and the world of Torrenos. Enjoying this one.
Mikey & Brennan are still on the run from the human authorities, but more importantly, they're on the run from some crazy shit from Terrenos, as well. A cool side story happening - their mom is starting to put two and two together and coming up with a pregnant daughter-in-law with wings from another dimension. Everything about that sentence gets me excited for the next volume! I love Brennan. He's such a great character and such a good brother.But I love Mikey because he's so sketchy that I can
The adventure continues. Art remains strong. Story ok though feeding parents still a drag. Needs to begin explaining why Mikey is inhabited by the Dark Lord. I'll keep going.
I gave first volume 5 stars more for potential and interesting premise than current quality but it's not living up to it.Not really bad but story hasn't griped me yet and I don't care for any of the characters.That being said I do plan to continue the series since I still believe it can shape up to be really good.
4.5 starsA strong continuation from Vol. 1. I wish thre were more flashbacks to Mikey's time in Terrenos, but what ones there are are there for good reasons. And that's better than too many. I like that we get a little more time into what Sarah's doing (the mother.) I feel like all she did in volume 1 was ignore the reality of the situation without the writing actually delving into that. In this, she becomes a little more involved. Dad Aaron takes more of a backseat this round, while Brennan bec...
Another perfect issue of Birthright!! Another dang cliffhanger ending that makes me SO ANXIOUS for the next issue!!!! Merged review:I'm not even kidding or exaggerating.... This is THE BEST comic book on the stands right now!!!!!Merged review:After a 2 month break, I could not wait for this book!! This issue drags you right back into the story so well that you feel like part of it. There are still so many questions and I'm still not sure who to be rooting for, a fact that would normally infuriat...
Reread: 14/6/21The story continues with Mikey and Brennan on the run and after defeating Ward they encounter a bear and defeat it meanwhile the mages send some Diviner to attack them while they are trying to cure an injury that Brennan attained while they were trying to get "Blade of the forever fields". And the bulk of the volume is about Mikey and Brennan trying to fight this Diviner and through the course of the volume we learn who it is and what its purpose is and it shows the true nature of...
An amazing follow up collection to the first volume. Any Fantasy lover should really check out this series. Williamson's story of a boy, now man, being stuck in a mystical world, encountering surreal, and often frighteningly demonic creatures while wielding incredible sorcerous powers is a pure adrenaline rush here. All the while, his family searches for a lost son through the investigation of his written journals. Williamson's pacing is perfect and incredibly riveting. The artwork by Bressan is...
I love everything. Story,drawings, colors. A good comic book not pretentious at all.
This is a fantasy comic series, so naturally I love it. The back-and-forth storytelling keeps me completed invested, and I can't wait to see the mystery unravel in future volumes. Even though the art isn't necessarily my favorite style, the action sequences are so on point. I also appreciate the sibling relationship dynamic that was present in this particular volume, and hope to see more of it in the next installment.
I wasn’t as captivated by this follow up volume, the Mikey and Brennan roadshow wasn’t as compelling as the missing child twists and turns of the first volume and the preggers wingèd lady smacked just a little too hard of Saga.
Good enough for a second volume. Nothing new was really introduced...mostly just treading water and solidifying the rules of the story.The art and coloring are spectacular (again) and even though the story itself didn't blow me out of the water the action was top notch and made for a pretty right on way to spend 30 minutes.
Nowhere near as revolutionary and exciting as the first volume; in fact, a little predictable, especially as the volume moved on. The artwork is still amazing however, and that's more than worth sticking around for. Hopefully the story moves into more dangerous territory rather than sticking with the usual fantasy tropes, especially considering it's a series that tries to turn the usual tropes on their collective head.
