KATABASIS #1 in shops now! Check out the reviews

But Why Tho? - William Tucker - Nov 20, 2024 - 10/10

Katabasis #1 is an action-led biblical tale. Juniper is one of the best new characters of the year. Her design is incredible, and her backstory is fascinating. Every aspect around the mercenary is enthralling and exciting. It isn't necessarily a religious comic; the three realms are merely playgrounds for creators. The fight scenes are frantic and phenomenal, with entirely unpredictable outcomes. The issue has the air of a video game, and the characters and dialogue often reflect that. Read Full Review
