Comments: A mysterious woman at night is looking for a boy with Spellsword blood. This story takes place in a strange setting. It appears to be a fantasy one with mythological creatures but also technology. Both are blended into the background.
The guardsmen are searching the city for Luna Lumere the mystery woman who is a wizard. She might even be the Great Wizard.
This story moves along slowly and other than a chase in the city not a lot happens. A few characters are introduced but not a lot is learned about them.
The boy on the train you know is going to play a huge part in this comic. Not a lot is known about him he draws and is a school drop out. Thats it.
For a fantasy tale it would be nice to see more fantasy. A city and a train do not offer much fantasy. Luna is shown using her powers and it lets you know she is powerful. Luna may just be that Great Wizard.

Comments: A young woman Gwyn and Eldrick a man are riding a train as they chat. The art is uplifting and both of them are drawn cute.
Magic is in the air and Eldrick can not control it. Luna Lumere can control it.
This is a cute but slow moving adventure story of magic. The fight scenes are slow looking and definitely lack excitement. The characters do have potential which if used right would make for a great story.
What exactly is going on in this story? Why is magic outlawed? What do all these characters want? What is the purpose of this story?
This comic needs more to it rather than just coasting along.
