“Crimson Society Vol. 1: Introduction” By Mike Hunau & Carlos Trigo Review

In the very near future, supernatural beings live among humans in peace, yet Jack Crimson finds his life as a werewolf frustrating, and wants nothing more than a cure. Desperate to free himself from this curse, he makes a series of decisions leading him down an unexpected path. Join Jack as he makes his way through this dark new world.

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.

This preview attempts to introduce a dark, gritty world filled with intrigue and action, but ultimately falls short due to weak storytelling, underdeveloped characters, and uninspired art.

To be very honest here I gotta say that this preview feels like a very rough draft rather than a polished preview for the full version of this comic book.

The artwork in this preview is very fun and cute. Because it has a moody, gritty tone that fits the series’ theme, with some interesting character designs.

At the same time this preview has a a good potential which the creators of this preview didn’t use fully. I find the idea of a secretive society with dark motives to be very interesting but the way it is presented to us makes me feel like the potential of this preview wasn’t fully used.

The plot in this preview is confusing and poorly structured, with abrupt scene changes and little context to understand the characters’ motivations or the world.

The characters in this preview lack depth, development, or clear personalities, making it hard to care about their fates.

The artwork in this preview is functional but uninspired, with bland panels and a lack of visual dynamism that could have heightened the story.

This preview has also a lot of pacing issues. Because the story in this preview drags in places and feels rushed in others, leading to a disjointed reading experience.

So will I buy and read the full version of this comic book ? I don’t think I will. The main reason behind this is how poorly this preview was very uninteresting for me personally.

I Give This Book 2 / 5
