Mythics 2 – Review

Introduction

  Sequel time already, huh?

  I was actually very excited to read Mythics 2. I’ve been picking things apart for both official review and my own improvement for quite awhile. But this is the very first time in my life that one of my criticisms has reached the creators to possibly influence later work. Upon an initial skim through the comic while I was multitasking, I was thrilled. It was immediately obvious that all of my art critiques landed. I was looking forward to seeing if the same was true for the writing.

  I find immortal characters incredibly interesting. From Wolverine in the X-Men, to Highlander, and just about any vampire story. That’s why I have some of my own. Either immortal, or just characters of a fantasy race that live longer than humans.…
