review:
'Soulfire Vol. 1: Return of the Light' by Michael Turner, Jeph Loeb, J. T. Krul, Joe Benitez, Peter Steigerwald is about a young man with a legacy that he doesn't even know about.
In the year 2211, San Francisco is destroyed by a dragon attack. A young boy named Malikai and his friends Sonia and P.J. find themselves in the middle of an attack. Malikai is saved by a winged woman named Grace and he finds he is more than he thinks he is. Now he is on the run and trying to find the 5 masters who will train him. He better learn fast because the bad guys are right on his trail.
Aspen comics are known for a certain aesthetic and it's on display here. The art is very much like other Aspen titles. If you like that, then you'll like this art. I've never been a big fan myself.
The story is fine, but there are times when it feels like it jumps around or things end abruptly. The group moves from Hawaii to Tokyo and are immediately in a fight with no continuity or explanation.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Aspen Comics, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
