This is a solid second issue with a lot of highlights. I enjoyed learning more about Phaedra, more clues in the murder case and the hints of further intrigue. Black Cloak is shaping up to be a solid mystery in a fantasy setting book with an interesting central protagonist.
Do you like crime solving characters faced with a murder set in a mythical style world? Then odds are you’ll like Black Cloak.
“With each series announced I’m sure that I’m the target audience for the books comprising the MassiVerse yet when it comes down to it that’s simply not the case.”
“Perhaps I’m reading too far into it, but there’s a certain nihilistic undertone here that isn’t really addressed in this issue and that doesn’t sit right with me.”
“I’m not going to give anything away, but if you’ve been following Radiant Black I think you’ll be legitimately shocked by this one.”
“The design work throughout the series so far has been supercool and there’s definitely a lot to attract you to Radiant Black but we’re not exactly seeing a Blue Beetle style book here that captures both the personal moments and the heroics.”
