Geeked Out Nation - Jideobi Odunze
Jan 13, 2016Birthright #13 finds a great balance between action and emotion. Things got personal for Mikey and those are the moments you never overlook since that is when his defenses are at their lowest. He's vulnerable, and that's where we learn more than we would have when he was trying to save face. Read Full Review

We The Nerdy - Henry Wong
Jan 18, 2016I have high hopes for the rest of this comic, and I look forward to following up on its wonderfully plotted course. The art work and writing have been superb so far, and there have not been any scenes that were explicitly filler. This week's issue has also set a nice precedent for what we should expect in future battle-oriented issues. Read Full Review

All-Comic - Dan Pennacchia
Jan 14, 2016Birthright #13 both advances the story and features the titles best action sequence in both script and art. During the battle, Sameals blades trigger a flurry of images that depict the boy Mikey once was, scared and crying in the woods. Intriguingly, the creators include one image here that had not been shown before, and it provides a glimpse into what may have happened the day he attempted to take on the God King Lore. The brief panel, along with another solid cliffhanger will have readers clamoring for the next issue. Read Full Review

Feb 01, 2016This is a very good issue with an epic battle with our "hero" seemingly being defeated" again. We get a glimpse into what happened at the end and how Lore convinced Mikey into allowing the "Nevermind" into him. We also get Mikey's mindset as to why he wants to find the mages and kill them all. Other chess pieces were placed on the board, like Agent Kylen and his plan to capture Mikey and find out why he became an agent of Lore. And finally who is Mastema and what will happen to Wendy and Rya? Read Full Review

Jan 14, 2016The last issue of Birthright did well in moving the overarching story back in the right direction, but the overall sense of narrative momentum remains a work in progress. Read Full Review

I binged the first handful of issues of this book, because I love Josh Williamson's work so I thought I would give this book a shot. I hadn't been too big into the fantasy side of comics, so I wasn't sure I was even going to like this book at all. But after thirteen issues, I can safely say that I look forward to this book coming out every month. The artwork is really solid, and this issue is no exception. The fight scene in this issue was so visually engaging, that I found myself taking SO LONG to read this book, because I was just pouring over each page and finding little things each time that drew my eye. I think that there is still a lot that this book has yet to reveal about what is REALLY going on, and from my point of view, there is more

Fighting issue. The fight is given enough space to breath and take up most of the issue, which works well.
