REVIEWS

STEPHEN
Toil and Trouble #1 (of 6)
Imprint: Archaia
Writer: Mairghread Scott
Artists: Kelly & Nichole Matthews
Throw out your textbooks, this is not the Macbeth you remember. Mairghread Scott (Transformers: Windblade) and artists Kelly & Nichole Matthews have reinvented Shakespeare’s famous tragedy, but this time the power is in the hands of the three witches. These ladies aren’t all “double, double, toil and trouble.” They’re the power controlling kings and the fate of Scotland.
What It Is: The three fates—Riata, Cait, and Smertae—have always been guiding and protecting Scotland unseen, indirectly controlling the line of kings according to the old religion. When there is a disagreement in the sisterhood, Riata and Smertae will use men as pawns, and Smertae will direct Macbeth to a crown he was never meant to have.

ECOS #1
Writer: Roberto Cruz

Published by Da’MaroJo Studios.
Once upon a time... There was a mighty warrior. A hero of millions and General of the great army of the Kingdom of Irinoi. With the aid of his hammer, Makinui, he defended the Kingdom, it's people and his son.

But one day tragedy struck, a hero fell and the legend was tarnished.

Years passed and now, Jonah, the general's son is on a quest to seek justice with the aid of his friends and his guardian, a big warrior-ape that only he can summon. Together they embark on the adventure of a lifetime to clear Jonah's father legacy.

In ECOS we cover topics like friendship, brotherhood, family and love. The story is targeted at young boys and girls between the ages of 10 to 17 years old.
