In a daring feat, Gerry Duggan and Garry Brown's FALLING IN LOVE ON THE PATH TO HELL #1 successfully blends American western, feudal Japan, and science fiction elements into a cohesive and captivating narrative. It’s not easy to include a mix of such vastly different worlds into one comic book, let alone a single, debut issue, but this book does just that without things feeling like a complete mess. Duggan introduces Asami and MacRaith, our two protagonists, through background stories that do ann excellent job providing context and depth for each character, while making it easy for reads to immediately feel invested in their journey. Asami's adherence to the Samurai code of ethics makes her an undeniable instant standout. How these tw o end up ‘falling in love’ as the titles suggests is a complete mystery, but, based on what we’ve seen so far, the journey should be well worth reading. Garry Brown's artwork and Chris O'Halloran's colors are a match made in heaven. The unique environments and character designs are breathtaking visual feasts. Joe Sabino's lettering work brings the action to life, evoking the gory energy of a Tarantino film. This really has the look of a movie told through the comic book medium. FALLING IN LOVE ON THE PATH TO HELL #1 is a triumph of storytelling and a can’t-miss first issue. Who knows where these things will end up, but this path to hell has been set up so well. more

Very cool first issue. As others have said, mixing so many genres is difficult to pull off (first thing that comes to mind is Wild Wild West with Will Smith bleh) but so far so good. The art is really meh in my opinion, but it gets the job done. The writing is superb so far and really hooks you and leaves you wanting more. Slightly reminds me of an anime I watched last year, Hell's Paradise. Definitely going on my pull list.

I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. I really liked it up until the end. I'm just not sure if the twist is for me, but we will see.

I'm not a fan of this very stylized artwork. The characters are interesting, but I just have no idea what this is about. I'll be returning for the next issue to find out. My Comic Review Channel - https://youtu.be/uzHGZutvmTo
