Reviews

Dedual has set up a great universe with lots of interesting elements. I would love to see how it came to be that this corporation was running everything. There’s a quick history lesson when someone asks about Earth, but I think it would be quite interesting to know what, if anything, this corporation is doing that’s benevolent. If it’s always been evil, how have they hid that from the public? In other words, how did they get into the position they’re in? And does that mean that it’s one segment of the corporation that’s evil? Or does it come from the top? There are so many fascinating things to explore here.

...the story is very compelling. The story told in issue #2 by itself is a fantastic attention grabber, but it's merely a piece of a giant puzzle.

This is fun sci-fi, sort of like Warren Ellis with libido in check. It's a saga of intrigue and impossible odds, set in a tomorrow way way way ahead of the here and now, where the fate of the world is left up to a handful of mysterious individuals.

Dennis Calero's heavy inks lend greatly to all the sneaking around that is happening. He's really brought to life the futuristic world that Dedual has crafted in TORCHBEARER. I'm very much looking forward to seeing more from this team.

The art is serviceable, the story moves along nicely, the dialogue is believable, the characters seem to have some depth, and the world building is just fine.
