But I’m a believer that you can jump into any comic and be able to enjoy the story, as long as that first page catches you up, and it’s understood that things could be lost here and there, but get the general scope of the story, make me go and seek the back issues even. I understand I’m jumping not just in the middle of a story, but at the end of a short series. I decided to give it an honest try, no predispositions on it, even see if they can win me again. It’s been at least 7 years since I read a full issue from any Zenescope title, and Coven #5 came out this week. Ever since I’ve scoffed at everything Zenescope has done, every cover, every title draws disdain from me. I’m no stranger to appreciate some cheesecake here and there, but this was just way too much. Unnecessary nudity, heavy and continuous suggestions of rape, and it was clear the selling point was the cheesecake art. As I read on to the story, the art, although very skilled continued to make me more and more uncomfortable. I was lured by the idea of a dark, gritty spin-off to the story that was broken down into an all-ages classic by Disney. Long ago when I was still dipping my toes back into comics I heard of this book called Escape from Wonderland, the cover looked suggestive but I bought into it. ![]()
