Last October, Marvel Comics launched their first-ever W arhammer 40,000 comic book to much acclaim .You’ll never see a Space Marine mourning, likely because they are literally manufactured to know no fear. It’s just that it’s a little bit disappointing to read a story that, so far at least, feels very safe.

My boyfriend is the one who's the bigger Warhammer 40k nerd, and I've always felt so overwhelmed by the lore. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

As a collector of comics and graphic novels it was disappointing to receive a new book that was at a worse quality than some second hand comics that I have brought in the past. The new series will tell an all-new action-packed adventure of the sisterhood of warriors known as the Adepta Sororitas.It takes a particular talent to keep track of all the details essential to the 40K universe, and Edgar is next-level great," Grønbekk concludes. The grimdark is heavy and there’s very little respite in a world where war is cherished and death is constant.

It was a good death and a worthy sacrifice, played out in a lavish and cinematic battle, and I appreciated the story lingering there in its aftermath.
