review:
'Heathen Vol. 1' by Natasha Alterici collects the first four issue of the series. I really liked this unusual story of Norse legends.

Aydis has been banished from her home by her father when she refused to marry and conform to life in her village. The village would have her love a man, and Aydis likes women instead. She leaves accompanied by her horse, Saga.

She decides to take revenge against Odin himself. Along the way, she frees Valkyrie Brynhild who will hopefully aid in her cause.

I really enjoyed this story a lot more than I though I would. It's helped by the art, which I loved. The style is rough and sparse and the colors are muted, but it's a style I really took to. Aydis is a pretty unique character and I'd like to read more of her story.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Vault Comics, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
