Two Moons #1Two Moons is a new series with a lot of promise. Its in a position to offer an appropriately confrontational take on what makes an American and if its even possible to identify anyone as such. The art is exceptional and it takes command of the story in unexpected ways. The book welcomes questions, demands thought, and values different angles. Come ready into the story or it will sneak up on you with its dark intricacies. Read Full Review

When taken all together, Two Moons #1 delivers an interesting character-filled introduction to its narrative. The story picks up in the final act and leaves Virgil in a tight spot. I expect many readers will want to see what comes of it. Read Full Review

'Two Moons' is a remarkably well-told story set within the horrors of war as we follow the young Pawnee Union soldier through his journey. A journey that is intertwined between mysticism, bigotry, violence, and monsters of all kinds. It's devastatingly illustrated by Giangiordano with amazing craftsmanship and precision. 'Two Moons' is smart, bloody, and haunting.   Read Full Review

Strong visuals, characters with heft and weight, and a sense that things are coming apart not only in a nation at war, but in our lead character, mark Two Moons #1 as a strong opening issue in what promises to be an exciting and intriguing series. Read Full Review

Ive been looking for something to fill the void left by the end of The Devil You Know, and with it the conclusion of the adventures of the B.P.R.D., and fingers crossed, Two Moons looks like it will go some way towards doing so. I look forward to seeing where issue two takes us and can heartily recommend you give this a try. Read Full Review

It's hard to know what to make of Two Moons right now. I very much like the idea of a horror-focused comic book series set during the Civil War, but there's a lot in this first issue that is hard to pass judgment on at the moment. Read Full Review

Two Moons Issue: 1 “The Iron Noose” Part I Publisher: @imagecomics Writer: @ishmahab Artist: @valeriogiangiordanoart Colorist: @dragonmnky Cover: Valerio Giangiordano & @billcrabtreecolor Letterer: @scheisseler This all-new ongoing horror series from Image comics follows a Pawnee man named Virgil Morris, aka Two Moons, through his time fighting for the Union during the Civil War. Private Virgil is an assimilated American, a man that left his roots behind only to see them come back to claim him. Virgil consistently has nightmares and he quickly discovers that the horrors are far worse than combat he experiences in the war as the ghosts of his past reveal the monstrous ancient evil around all around him. This new series is off to an interesting start in its debut issue. I’m immediately invested in Virgil and look forward to following him throughout his journey fighting for the Union. Not only does Virgil have to fight off other forces, but he also has to deal with supernatural force around him. I absolutely love Valerio Giangiordano’s artwork and I feel his style is absolutely perfect with this type of story. I very much like the idea of a horror-focused comic book series set during the Civil War because I am a huge history buff and I’m interested to see how this story progresses with this time period.
