Comments: One Hundred and Fifty years ago magick came to the world as science left it. The world has changed and moved on. It is never explained what caused the science to go away or where the magick making machine came from? 
  One group wants to control it all and they keep pushing attacking others to conquer them and force them to join them. The Hyper-Priestess Isimar Rothschild is unrelenting as are her solders. 
  Magick here is shown with the color pink. The art is done in a basic style with nothing really standing out. Even the animal hybreds are just there. None of the characters pop out at you. 
  There is a war going on but you might not be able to tell it comes across as more of a gang fight over turf. 
  There is one traveler who gets caught up in the middle of it all. He does not use magick, he uses the old science. He might add some suspense to the story but we need to know more about him. 
  Tales From the Street: "World Tree" There is no talking only art in this story. The colors are so well done. The story though does not go anywhere. The art just shows people walking or standing around. 
  This issue needed more to it.
