3.0

A hack-and-slash full-of-violence secret-history dark-fantasy graphic novel. Aquila had some interesting ideas beyond violence. It promised a longer stories, beyond the current arc, and there were 2 interesting characters that stole my attention.

The two minor characters that stole my attention are:
1. Felix Fortunatus, a coward roman soldier turned to Aquila's aid. I have my hope Aquila shared some of his immortality to Felix. A common coward could not survived multiple fighting between deities' champions.
2. Triscus The Diviner. Some kind of clairvoyance detective. Interesting concept character, although his role in story as POV, but he was not contribute much for plot.

Unfortunately, there was not much explanation about the magic rules. Like what made Aquila different than other champions of Devourers or champions of other deities.
