“Divine Intervention: Preview” By Frank J. Barbiere & J.C. Grande Review

Marc Graham, a conflicted, contract killer, could hardly be considered a hero. Things change when he stumbles into an ancient conflict between the Templar agency, a clandestine organization that protects powerful artifacts from falling into the wrong hands, and strange, demonic forces seeking to control the world. After gaining mysterious, angelic powers from a freak accident Marc must dive headfirst into a dangerous new world where he is hunted by deadly monsters who will stop at nothing to unlock the secret of his new powers and possess them for themselves.

Let me start this review by saying that this one is just a preview for the entire comic book. And I read it because I wanted to see if the full comic book was worth the money and time I would spend on it. And im gonna give you the answer for that at the end of this review.

I gotta admit the reason why I picked up this preview of the entire comic book it offers an intriguing mix of fantasy and drama, delivering a concept that piques interest but ultimately settles into a middle ground. It has a compelling narrative but at times it struggles to fully captivate.

The plot of talks about the themes of divine influence and moral complexity, setting up a premise that promises philosophical exploration alongside action.

The writing style in this one is engaging, with moments of sharp dialogue and thought-provoking ideas that hint at deeper layers beneath the surface. 

But the pacing feels uneven, occasionally dragging in parts where more tension and urgency would enhance the overall experience.

The artwork in this one is good, it shows a vibrant style that complements the fantastical elements of the story. The artwork is good at conveying the emotional tone of the characters, bringing the world to life in a visually stimulating way.

The main characters are relatable, but they occasionally feel like they’re teetering on the edge of cliché which really didnt help me to like then more in a way. The character’s motivates or backstories could have been more put forward for us, because at times its very hard to notice either of them in this one.

I gotta admit that I will read the entire comic book at some point in the future, but when it will happen im very unsure, because my reading plan for this year is very packed since there is a lot of books and comic books which I planed to read this year.

I Give This Book 3 / 5
