    Oni Press and Nacelle are building something special with their NacelleVerse, and Power Lords adds a unique flavor to the mix.

    Power Lords #1 might be bogged down a bit by its backstory, but it has the visuals and the spectacle one would expect from its title. Those who grew up with the original toy line will probably find something to love. Read Full Review

    Power Lords #1 isn't a bad start but at the same time beyond it's later twist, there's little that makes it interesting. The characters feel torn from 80s action films representing more of an archetype than actual characters. Overall, it's another Nacelleverse launch that feels a bit more focused on the flash of it all than the depth. Read Full Review

    Diving into Power Lords Issue #1, I was first captivated by Cover A, which has a strong 90's feel to its artwork, its vibrant allure drawing me in with the promise of adventure akin to Guardians of the Galaxy. The story unfolds with a universe teeming with a vast, colorful array of aliens, reminiscent of "The Fifth Element", making for a fun, pulpy read. The art style, with its dynamic panels and bold character designs, echoes the work of Joe Madureira, enhancing the comic's visual appeal. This issue opts for straightforward, action-driven storytelling without delving into deep plots or unveiling grand plans, which might feel abrupt but serves as an effective hook to keep readers interested. Overall, Power Lords is a delightful nod to the a more

    The old 80s toy line was weird and experimental. This comic is the exact opposite - generic and dull.
