The new Dungeons & Dragons: Shadows of the Vampire series started up last week. Let’s see what reviewers thought of it…

• Adventures In Poor Taste: 10/10 “A good sense of humor, fantastic action, and cool fantasy elements throughout? This is damn good fantasy that should not be missed.”

• Big Glasgow: 10/10 “The characters are endearing, the action exciting and the art compliments it all in a way that is rarely seen.”

• Binging On Comics: “Solid characters and great art. This is a must own.”

• ComicWow!: 10/10 “Zub has a great sense of character, setting and plot; he uses all to great advantage here. Working both as storyteller and Dungeon Master, he moves readers smoothly through the adventure.”

• Crit For Brains: 10/10 “This is the most exciting fantasy comic I’ve read in a long time, and I can’t wait for more.”

• IGN: 8/10 “Zub is a natural fit for a series that emphasizes humor and character banter as much as monster-slaying and medieval intrigue.”

• Reading With a Flight Ring: “Jim’s an amazing writer and the kind of fun and passion he has for this is infectious.”

• Tor Athena: “I’ve never read a Dungeons & Dragons comic so I can, hand on my heart, say that you can pick up this comic and just read it.”…”It’s funny, the art is brilliant, and I just loved the story.”

• Weird Science: 9/10 “If you are any sort of Dungeons & Dragons fan, you should at least give this first issue a peak. It has some awesome action, cool characters a sense of humor and…Minsc and Boo!”
