But Why Tho? - Mateo Guerrero
Apr 13, 2019Of course, this is just the first issue of Gogor. From what I can tell, Garing hopes to spin this story into a Fantasy Epic. Having a setting too complex to explain in a single issue is the sort of problem you kind of want to have with Epic stories. While much of its setting and players remain unclear by issue's end, Garing delivers more than enough to keep us reading. We're sure to learn a whole lot more about Altara, Amarno,and the eponymous Gogoras the series continues. Read Full Review

May 02, 2019Hopefully, Gogor can fix the issues and improve as a family friendly fantasy story that is needed. By taking the entire comic on, may ultimately cause its demise. Read Full Review

It's been awhile since Ken Garing published a comic! This seems to be Garing doing something similar to Bone in tone.
