Torchwood: Rift War
So,
i could resist and had to buy the ‘Rift War’ it is a comic from Torchwood. So this comic strip is drawed by different artist. So i will talk about the chapters and than about the whole story.
The first chapter is not my art. I don’t like the way it is drawn, the same is it for chapter two. But the characters are really well written. It starts with creatures that came through the rift and attacking humans. Torchwood is on the way to fighting them. Also it seems like this creatures are in war with Torchwood, just Torchwood don’t know anything about it.
The second chapter is about the vanishing of the Torchwood mainquarters and Tosh with it. Tosh is in the space between and met there a strange guy named Vox, which seems to know a thing about this creatures and the rift.
The third and fourth chapter is looking really amazing. I like the way it looks. The third chapter is really sweet it is about gwen and rhys raising a alien baby. The fourth chapter is about dinosaurs in our time and Vox says that he can help to heal the rift forever.
The fifth chapter is about gwen and jack in the past. Also it is Vox which brings them there and bring them back. It is a really special guy. But this chapter and the sixth is not my art. I don’t like the way it looks. The sixth chapter is about a time overlap. So we met the old Trochwood.
Chapter seventh and eigth find kinda ugly but also it is a more realistic style what i like more. So yeah… i don’t know it are a special chapters from the artworks. Also we find out a little more about the creatures and about Vox.
Chapter nine and ten are also not my style. This is the big finale. Yeah i know i didn’t write much about the comic. So lets say, i was dissapointed. Not just about the drawings because i am not a big comic fan (i am more the manga guy). But the story is not so good. The episode are to short to be reall emotional or thrilling. The turning point is not really surprising. I think must people did see this caming. It is nice and so but not more. If i had read it before i bought it, would had bought it.
There is also a bonus story in there. She is really short and i like the drawings. But it is also not a deep story, just scratching the surface, if you could call that scratching…
I love Torchwood and i love things where everyone is still alive. But i can’t recommend the comic. For me it was to disapointing.
