shane_tiernan's review against another edition

Probably 3.5 stars. I'm familiar with a couple of these characters Darkness, Witchblade and Tom Judge, but there's really a huge cast going on here. As with all stories with a bunch of main characters it takes time to introduce them all and try to give each one some time. So not a ton happened in these first 5 issues, but I liked what did happen. And now that the "Fellowship" has been gathered (actually 2 different ones) it's time to head to Mordor. :)
I love the art on these and all the characters just radiate "cool". I may have to check some of their previous stuff out.

A great set up for a new storyline. As usual I love the art, and the story that Ron Marz manages to tell in such a short amount of time. Though it is very spoilery for the Witchblade series.

I went to my local comic book store just looking to kill 10 minutes or so. I can walk out without getting anything, I tell myself. Sure. Dream on. Artifacts was the product of said 10 minutes in the comic book store, and I would have been sorely missing something if I hadn't picked it up.
The art is simply stunning. But it doesn't stop there. The story is kick-ass, and each panel is well thought out and planned, working perfectly in-tune with the writing. Easily one of my new favorites, so much so that I just picked up the next few volumes. I'm sure I'll be picking up some Witchblade, too.

Well, it's a good start into the top cow universe. All the big names are there, Witchblade, The Darkness, Angelus. It's the beginning of a big scheme and of course you need to read on if you want to find out what's behind it. If you decide to read this you have to put up with harsh violence and big breasted women.
On the plus side, there's a ton of bonus material in the back of the book (a lot of covers and an interview wich breaks up the comic into the whys and whats).
