Advance Review: Hunt. Kill. Repeat #1 

By Nolan P. Smith

I have slowed down on my comic book reviews as I have dived deeper into the action figure world, but when you have a revenge tale starring the family tree of the Greek pantheon, you get me back in. Get ready for mythological mayhem with Hunt.Kill.Repeat #1, coming soon from Mad Cave Studios. 

From Mark London, who has wowed me with his writing in Knights of the Golden Sun and Battlecats, and artists Francesco Archidiacono, Marc Deering, Lee Loughridge, and letters by Rus Wooton, the story starts with the Greek gods returning and taking over modern-day society. Ten years pass, and Artemis, the famed goddess of the hunt, is living among the humans- married to a mortal man and pregnant with their son. When Zeus and the other gods find out, all hades breaks loose. 

London crafts a mature tale worthy of the Greek myths. We see the grandeur of the Greek pantheon, with their “I’m better than you, and I know it” vibe. Artemis is just someone trying to break from family tradition, but that doesn’t work too well when Zeus, Hermes, and more dangle from your family tree. The artwork is fantastic- I love the action-charged panels and killer designs. Hunt. Kill. Repeat kicks off with a bang, literally. This high-octane Odyssey has an excellent first chapter! I am incredibly impressed with the latest outing from Mad Cave- be sure to preorder yours today!
