A couple of tweet reviews from fans who have read "Lucid":

@DestinyRaven - "it was a complete mind blower and entertaining with all the historical/occult tie ins...."

ReplyDeleteGreat blog post, as usual.
ReplyDeleteAnd I like Lucid very much. A rich story with fascinating characters. I surely hope they do more than just the 4 issues! Looks like there's a lot of backstory to be told. And I can't wait for #2, to find out how the story goes on.
LUCID is amazing!! Compelling story and beautiful graphics. Tells enough of the story that you feel immediately drawn into the action yet teases with intriguing hints to other parts of the story so you want more!!! Will be a wonderful series. McMillian, Wieszczyk, Before the Door and Archaia Comics should be proud!!
ReplyDeleteI so agree... I really didn't expect to be captivated. But I was.
