Review: Portal Bound #4

By Cat Wyatt

Portal Bound #4 is the second to last in the series, and we still have quite a bit to deal with before it’s all said and done. In the last issue, Sybil ran off, intent to save her kingdom on her own. That would have been well and good, except she destroyed the portal on her way. That and there’s the fact that she and Eli are soul-bound, meaning that if she dies so does Eli. That makes this move of hers a bit more selfish than it looked at first glance. Hopefully, this issue will have the team getting back together.

Review: Portal Bound #3

By Cat Wyatt

Issue #3 or Portal Bound is titled Riley Questionable Judgment, and based on what little we know of each of the characters this seems like a very fitting title. The last we saw of our cast they were being attacked by a mercenary and his hounds, only to reveal that he was the alternate for Brett. Talk about a coincidence, right?

Review: Portal Bound #2

By Cat Wyatt

Portal Bound continues the unique tale started in the first issue. Princess Sybil has come to our earth in hopes of finding her counterpart on this world, which she did fairly quickly. He’s a teenager with no combat training, and his name is Elias. So not exactly the savior Sybil was hoping to find, but it could be worse I suppose; at least they still appear to have the ability to combine (or whatever I should be calling it).

Review: Portal Bound #1

By Cat Wyatt

Portal Bound is a new series by Aspen Comics, and it by far has one of the most colorful and bright comics I’ve seen in quite some time (which is saying something). Portal Bound is set in the far future, with a warrior princess, parallel dimensions, monsters, and magic. So what’s not to like about it?

Sybil is a teenage princess, but she’s the child of strife. Her parents don’t exactly see eye to eye (read: her father has become a maniacal megalomaniac, and her mother has stayed the sane person she always was). Sybil’s mother has been taken prisoner by the mad king, and so Sybil and her uncle (Horuk, brother to the king) have come up with the brilliant plan to try and reach out to another dimension for help.

Review: Lola XoXo v2 #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Siya Oum’s Lola XoXo is a beautiful comic. It’s one that you could easily look at for days and days because of how gorgeous everything is and not just the title character of Lola. The world it creates is fairly interesting as well, a kind of post-apocalyptic world, but not in the vein of Mad Max. More like that terrible TV show Revolution, but only in the setting and style.
