COMIC REVIEW: Thistil Mistil Kistil (TMK)
(my fan art)
GENRE: Child Norse Action Web Comic
SUMMARY: A young viking lad (Coal) is on his way to the afterlife when he is stopped by Odin and sent on a mission to find the missing parts of legendary weapons that Loki lost.
REVIEW: This is another comic I'm still reading (the last one is Atlandhttp://www.realmofatland.com/ which isn't that good anymore and I won't be reviewing though I keep reading since I've been reading it for so long). The plot is kind of childish, but it's Norse and the art is inspired by super graphic mediums such as illuminated manuscripts and Samurai Jack. Something about it just makes it so beautiful. There are several panels that I downloaded specifically because I found them so pretty. I even drew a fan art picture on my deviant page to warm up for drawing (http://tylerhaas.deviantart.com/#/d55w581). It's like watching a Disney movie as an adult: it's fun and enjoyable, but not sophisticated or in-depth. Still I like to look at it.
ART: 8/10 (for style)
