Ragemoor has been one of the most interesting, well produced comics I’ve read in a long time. The story has been very well conducted and the mysterious nature of the content paired with the gritty monster like quality of the art have played perfectly casting an old B-Movie kind of feel surrounding this mysterious tale. The conclusion of this book was anything if not shocking leaving me wanting more from both Strnad and Corben.
The story of the living monolith that is Ragemoor continues, In this third issue of four the mystery of Ragemoor’s creation and intent with the current inhabitants unfolds. This issue has a little resolve but offers a lot more questioned and has me rather excited about the concluding fourth issue.
The art on Ragemoor has been something special. I’m not usually a fan of Corben’s work, I was rather unimpressed with “Hellboy,” but I really feel he’s in his groove here.
This issue is a great follow up to the previous. While I was unsure how the second of four would play out I believe the creative team on this book kept the pace and managed to peak my interest even more into “Ragemoor,” its inhabitants, and the forces working within.
We are brought back to castle “Ragemoor” with a haunting poem tying us back to the previous issue relating to Anoria and her new place within the castle. It seems she has a new admirer, Tristano, a “poacher.”
