Issue#3 finds the group not much closer to working out what’s happening and a couple of members short after disastrous attempts to use their newly gifted magic abilities. Wisely they decide to put all their efforts into escaping the dark and dangerous castle.
However, the more they try to get out, the stranger and more menacing the evil magical forces around them become. Soon they realise they will face their pasts in the most profound and sinister ways imaginable.
David Hazan has crafted a gripping tale with all the hallmarks of a classic fantasy adventure that feels unique and relevant. Fast-paced dialogue combines with gothic novel-style narration, easily carrying both the story’s human and action elements from issue to issue.
The action bounces across the eclectic, superbly defined characters creating a fun, likeable cast that would easily keep their appeal across a series of adventures.
The Art in Monomyth superbly fits the fantasy horror themes. Beautifully neat lines sing with gothic flare and display fine ornate details of the mythical mediaeval-style world with classic fantasy genre flare. Colours run primarily pastels, beautifully glowing reds, yellows, and purples.
Monomyth #3 continues a unique and sublimely put-together story that explores how we are defined and some things trapped by our personal stories.
