What Readers Have Said
“Really liked the first one. It kind of reminded me of the X-Men back in the day when the X-Men were fun, but with a supernatural touch. I will definitely be in for number 2.” – Rezcot
“I just finished reading the Shadow Sentry and I have to say it’s a really great book from the top notch art to the writing and I enjoyed the pacing as well. A lot of comics in my opinion rush through things and others take too dang long to get to the point, but I thought yours was just right. I am very much looking forward to the sequel and thank you for making comics fun and entertaining again!” — Elminster
“I’ve always known how good this was going to be, but I’ve still got to say it…the presentation and quality are of the highest standard and the story and artwork are fantastic. I’ve backed over 50 CG books in the last year/year and a half… but this has been one of my top five most anticipated books… and expectations have not only been met, but exceeded!” – Mark in Scotland
“I just devoured both books. Best comics I have read in a long time. Mic drop. You have made me a fan for life!” – Christopher
“Excellent read. I thought the first one was the best written of the indie crowd and this one tops that. We need more people to find out about these books…” – Daniel C.
“The origin story for Commander Noble was a 10/10. Not going to broach the personal reason it meant so much to me, but even setting that aside, this narrative was brilliant! I am not spoiling anything. This is why I back comics from some creators. WELL DONE!” – R2D24Life
