Well, to tell the truth, these stories are not so great as all that. But what a treat it is to be able to buy PDFs of these old Gold Key comics, just for the sake of nostalgia! I'm delighted to have these available.

Artesia Afield continues in much the same way as the previous book. If you liked the first collection, then everything you liked is in this one too!
As Artesia strugles to come to grips with the effects of her actions in volume 1, she finds herself at the head of a growing army as it marches to war. The scale of battles increases in this volume and the amount of different states and gods mentioned rises as well. Like the first volume, I found this one hard going at first. It really does help if you read the extra info at the back of the book.
The only problem I have with this series is that there's so many characters I find it confusing sometimes as to who's who. There's a couple of deaths that I think are supposed to be quite significant but I wasn't really sure as I didn't know if they were bit players or some of Artesia's best friends! But that's easily overlooked when you take into account the georgeous artwork and ongoing story....

I had seen this series in my local comic book store but hadn;t really had time to sit down and enjoy it.
Although I've only now read part 1 I felt a definate connection with the characters even the minor NPC that comes and goes.
The biggest winner for me was definately the art work though. I'm very bad at remembering names but with out a doubt the artist of these books has a very special talent. You almost feel as if you have to dodge the attacks when they come !
Over all a very happy reader thank you. =)...

I really like the art in this series, but the story is a little sparse. There is so little text that you can get through each issue in about a couple of minutes, and none of the characters are really fleshed out. Many of the events of the series would have more impact if more time had been spent developing the story and characters. For instance, when one character dies, there's no reason to care since he had just been introduced within the same issue. The revelation of the identity of the main villain is treated as if it's a big twist, but this character had literally only been seen in a couple of panels half-way through the series, and was never mentioned again, so the dramatic impact was negligible.
If I had bought these at the original price of $3.50, I would have felt that they were a bit overpriced, but the art alone makes them worth the current $.99 price. (Also, they'd be good for kids.)...
