Sentinel #4 (Sentinel Publishing)
Alan Holloway (w) Ian Beadle (a)
The latest issue of the small press Sentinel arrived in the post today and when I had finished my chores I sat down listening to Porridge Radio and relaxed with their latest effort and a worthwhile read it turned out to be!
Sentinel is a "pocket sized" comic, a format which will be familiar to readers of Commando and contains one complete story. Sub-titled "The Sci-Fi, Fantasy Horror Comic" Misty Moore certainly fits the bill as a horror story. Presumably set in the West Country Misty moves to Yeotown after an "incident" that is not explained to a large shared house with two other families.
Setting off for school Misty soon becomes the target of the bullies that prey on the weak and though manages to find a friend in Roberta the bullying makes her life a misery especially when she takes a place on the school hockey team.
After being severely beaten up Misty swears revenge out loud and something happens....
With a well written script and art that matches this comic is well worth picking up. Comes in two covers. I ordered the variant cover edition.
Sentinel can be found on Facebook: here:
Rating: 4 Stars (Recommended)
The next issue promises to be a full colour special. It will be on my "to buy list"!
The Kickstarter will begin in November!
