  Kino #1 is a strong contender for best opening in the Catalyst Prime line, and one that's a unique and visually interesting story that can appeal to readers looking for something different.

  A new entry in the Catalyst Prime world is great to see and this one is another unique one for the universe. A first issue that has me interested in seeing where it all goes and hoping we get more of that retro art. Read Full Review

I was never bored in the KINO heroics and loved the unashamed throwback to what got mant comic readers obsessed. I will see if the second issue lives up to the fun standard set by KINO #1 or if this was just a hook reserved for a single issue. Read Full Review
