Welcome to Weirdworld. Don’t know what that is? Don’t feel bad, neither do I. For some reason, Marvel decided to having it’s superhero anthology feature a clone of D&D meets Elfquest.
This story involves a trio of elves, one of which stole something important from a wizard named Lord Raven. As they battle werewolves, trolls, and drunken bar patrons, the group learn that they reluctantly might be the saviors of Weirdworld.
The story and art was pretty good. The biggest problem is that most of the characters were previously established in another title, and I know zilch about this series. Secondly, I think the series has some obvious cliche flaws. For example, the female elf is born from a flower only to be wearing a skimpy 2-piece fur bikini. Talk about being geared for roaring hormones of adolescent boys.
It’s worth consuming, but it just doesn’t fit with the Marvel Fanfare line AND it panders to horny teens.
Rating: 7 out of 10 stars.
