Reviews
As someone who enjoys Ultraman and the rest of the suitmation fandom but isn't the most well versed with the franchise, I enjoyed this issue quite a bit. I will say I'm cool with Kyle Higgins taking on just about any 80s or 90s property in comic book form(He did reignite my love for Power Rangers). My only concern here is that it wasn't much of a set up for someone who's never really gotten into Ultraman. This book definitely feels more geared readers who are already fans of Ultraman, which isn't a bad thing at all, just a little more wolrd building would have been nice for first time readers. As far as opening issues go, it was great, it had good character introductions, great art, and a great ending to get you to come back next month for issue #2!
