From the Random Stack of Unread Comics.
Title: Tall Tails: Thieves' Quest
Issue: 4
Date: October, 1998
Publisher: Vision Comics (available at Dreamweaver Press in webcomic form)
Writer: Jose Calderon
Artist: Daphne Lage
Cover: Daphne Lage, Scotty Arsenault, Eric Blumric
I reviewed #1 here, #2 here, and #3 here.
With the two parties, the rogues and the guardsmen, united, plans are made to track two groups of enemies who left the site of the battle.
The opening of this installment brings some good character development, and advances some of the political intrigue established in the previous issues of the series. Christian (AKA Andrew), the runaway prince is the focus and he gets some good bits of dialogue that bring out more of his background and personality.
Toward the end of this issue there are some action sequences that are a bit confusing in terms of who is attacking who and what exactly is going on, but the series has previously done a good job of bringing things back into focus and juggling the large number of characters in its cast.
While not everything came off as completely clear, the action scenes were intriguing enough to raise my interest in seeing how the scenario plays out.
Rating: 5.5/10
