The Ambassadors #3

Ambassadors is overflowing with potential. It's got a great concept that's being realized properly and the rotating artist approach has made each issue feel special. This is already becoming one of Image's top titles and one that's definitely worth catching up to enjoy the ride. Read Full Review

‘The Ambassadors' #3 reminds readers of what they've been missing with the absence of Travis Charest in comics. As well as a continuation of this fun Willy Wonka style storyline – but with capes, cowls and far higher stakes – we get exceptionally engaging art as Charest depicts a Paris that you can almost smell from off the page.

I love the visual style of this issue. There is a fantastic sense of realness to the depictions of the characters and the environments are magnificent. The issue looks amazing from the characters to the action. I loved every page and panel. Read Full Review

I need to re-read this but I wanted to give my first impressions. First off, Travis Charest's art is beautifully detailed. There are some wonderful scenes of Paris as well as the story characters. Mark Millar has been hyping up the fact that he actually got Charest to draw a whole issue as the artist is famous for being slow. (There's a fascinating video interview between the two on Millar's YouTube channel.) The story didn't grab me as much as the previous two issues. I'm not even sure why. It felt like a lot was being explained with the narration. Maybe a bit too much tell and not enough show? We meet the two focal characters of the comic, get a bit of their backstory and see them in action. It looks great but I wasn't feeling it. Maybe I was too hyped for tis one? As I said, I will be re-reading this after work before I make my video review. more
