Being that this is my first Staff Pick, I thought I’d give a shout out to another newbie. Leviticus Cross is the first title from the upstarts at Hays Entertainment and man, what an introduction! Levitcus Cross has got it all — Thor, ogres, magical street urchins, dudes with swords, one-eyed girls in leather leotards, even a giant lizard sporting a howdah!
How do ya’ top that? Well, the creative team that Seth Hays has put together is top-notch. Writer Jose Torres puts the fantastical back into fantasy. Leviticus Cross is as much a character as a setting; a city at the dawn of time where the super-heroic and the legendary stride hand-in-hand. Hector Sevilla’s pencils capture this hodge-podge of danger, daring and the downright awesome, and with the addition of color by Francisco Perez, they prove without a doubt that they are more than up to the job!
Each page is a feast. Great splashes, frenetic action and one heck of a story. This first of five issues (each shipping with two variant covers) is a can’t-miss for fans of the heroic. It’s always great to get in at the get-go, and Levitcus Cross promises the ride of a lifetime!See PREVIEWS page 284.
