This is a fantastic magical story and you can see it's clear inspirations in the first issue alone.
It does feel very much like the set up for a much bigger story. It covers a lot over it's pages in terms of world building and introducing it's characters but a lot of depth is currently missing. Despite this I don't think it's a major flaw, it simply feel's like an introduction to everything we can expect in future. (Of which I really hope they do carry on this beautiful series).
I enjoyed the characters and found there dynamic fun to read. The tension's of our protagonist fitting into an already established group of heros, the warmth of those moments of connection, and the exploration of past traumas are all fantastic.
The artwork is beautiful. It goes from some of the more comical scenes filled with beautiful vibrant colours to tense, heartbreaking, monochromatic scenes that despite it's lack of diaolgue relays such indepth moments.
