Die #10

This is easily Image's best comic of the year. Read Full Review

Every month another issue of DIE comes out and I fall in love again, and DIE #10 is no different. It has the perfect blend of high fantasy, self-awareness, and bleak interpersonal drama to be eternally compelling. I cannot wait to see where this series goes and what else the creative team does with it. I highly recommend this issue, not that it should surprise anyone that I've done so. Read Full Review

Stephanie Hans beautiful art perfectly complements the tone of this story and there are some magnificent visual moments throughout. Hans' style brings in the energy and dark tone of the story with the beauty and grace of the character. I love every scene Ash is in because Hans makes her look equally radiant and dangerous.

As the end of the story arc for ‘Split The Party' Die #10 changed the game in a dramatic way moving forward. There was no preparing yourself for what the driving force would be that keeps this party existing in this realm longer than they wanted. Either they will be their undoing, this world, or something else that they did not take into account while finding new reasons to extend their stay. Read Full Review

Another intriguing and worthy entry into DIE. One can only be saddened that the second arc has come to an end.More, please. Read Full Review

If you love beautiful artwork, add this book to your pull list. If you love an amazing fantasy story, add this book to your pull list. If you like something fantastical that still pulls elements from history and literature, add this book to your pull list. If you're stubborn you don't have to, but it would be cooler if you did.

THE GOOD: -This series is never not good. -Stephanie Hans is just such a powerful artist. She's able to communicate so many emotions, atmospheres and ideas through her work. It's actually quite remarkable. -Wow. Ash's character is so broken, so complex. I just love it. -The backstory was just so powerful, without even showing or really telling the reader anything directly. -Kieron Gillen is an amazing writer. The narration feels novel-worthy, the concepts are just so creative and the emotion is incredible. -Honestly, I feel like this is the type of comic where the bad guy could win. I mean, hell, the main character from the first arc became the bad guy, so I wouldn't put it past Kieron. That makes reading this really i nteresting. I don't know how it's going to turn out and I love it. -Chuck's never been my favorite character, but here his brief scene was really powerful. He's a broken man who knows he's dying and covers up any sort of emotions with alcohol and jokes. Even if I can't directly relate to that, I still really connect to the compartmentalization there. THE BAD: -I definitely needed a bit more knowledge about RPGs for some of this. I'm not taking a whole point of for my stupidity, but I guess I'll throw half a point off, because I struggled to understand a few ideas here. more

This comic is the definition of 'meh'. It's not bad, but it's not that good either.
