“Kagagi: The Raven Preview” By Jay Odjick & Patrick Tenascon & Fernando Granea Review

10-Page Preview! Matthew Carver was an average 16-year-old kid until the day he discovered he had inherited an ancient power and responsibility! The age-old evil known as the Windingo has returned, and only Matthew Carver can defeat it!

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 I’m gonna give you the answer for that at the end of this review.

The preview introduces us to Kagagi, who is a superhero rooted in Native American mythology. I personally found it to be very unique, interesting, and enjoyable. At the same time, it has a very culturally rich narrative, which I enjoyed a lot in this comic book.

The storyline in this preview is very compelling and well-paced, effectively setting up an engaging conflict and intriguing backstory that really hooked me into the storyline immediately.

The main character in this preview is a strong and relatable character, which really made me give this preview some extra points for doing so. The main character has a clear sense of identity and purpose. Which really made it very easy for me to like him and actually care about his journey in this preview and in the full version of this comic book.

The character development, even in this brief preview, is immersive, providing insight into the main character’s motivations and struggles.

When it comes to the side characters in this preview, they all have depth to them, which really makes them stand out and make them memorable just as much as the main character in this preview.

The artwork in this preview is very vibrant and dynamic. Which really makes the artwork perfectly complement the mythological elements of the preview.

The artwork is very detailed and atmospheric, bringing the world to life and enhancing the emotional impact of the narrative.

This preview gives us the themes of identity, heritage, and heroism, which really gives the story more depth and fun. Which again made me give this preview some extra points for having. These elements are thoughtfully presented, offering depth and resonance that enrich the overall narrative, which really made me very interested in reading the full version of this comic book. 

So, will I buy and read the full version of this comic book? Yes, I will. It might take some time for me to actually read the full version of this comic book because I have been way too optimistic when creating my TBR list for this year, and I don’t know if I will get the time to read the full version of this comic book this year. But I will read the full version of this comic book at some point in time.

I Give This Book 5 / 5
