Dragon Age: Magekiller #1 Review Roundup

Greg Rucka begins an all-new story set in the immersive dark-fantasy world of Dragon Age!

 
""Dragon Age: Magekiller" is a fun and engaging fantasy story for anyone who enjoys the genre.” - Comic Book Resources 
“Thanks to Greg Rucka's grounded and familiar approach to the material, this debut issue feels like it was meant for everybody, not just diehard Dragon Age fans. Along with some no-nonsense artwork from Carmen Carnero, Terry Pallot and Michael Atiyeh, Dragon Age: Magekiller #1 shows that fantasy doesn't have to be all flowing robes and flowery speeches. “ - Newsarama
"Fans of the game may find a little more here; certain references and an understanding of the general dynamic of the world. However, this title is written well and there is an opportunity for the characters and story to be really interesting going forward for any reader. Fans of fantasy have something to look forward to in the coming months.” - AiPT!
"Rucka is someone I consider to be a master of the medium, who also writes great characters and plot, and easily slips into various worlds. This is his first adventure in Dragon Age, and I am not the least bit disappointed in his efforts after only one issue.” - Women Write About Comics
"Here, the creative team has shown no signs of wavering, and the first issue introduces readers to very engaging lead characters and a story that has real urgency. There should be no hesitation, then, to giving this new series a chance.” - All-Comic
