Praise for THE SIRE
“If heroics take a back seat to manipulation, then convention takes a backseat to innovation in THE SIRE.” —Keil Phegley, CBR
“The story is solid as Dolce makes the characters three-dimensional. This (is a) well-done indy tale of a reluctant super-hero.” —Comic Buyers Guide
“From start to finish, this book is filled with action and characterization. But it’s not just a huge slugfest. Every single panel adds a bit to the plot and further advances and highlights each main character’s life.” —Silverbulletcomics.com
“It’s a nice restoration from the decompressed trends of late: a 1990s-style debut, in which plenty happens, some of it resolved to satisfy the reader, and some threads left untied to bring one back.” —Comicbase.com
“It is rare for a superhero book to stand out, but [SIRE] does. The last non-Big Two superhero book that stood out to me was Invincible, and look where Kirkman is now.” —Paperbackreader.com
Originally published by After Hours Press, The Sire: Origins collects the first three issues of the series and drops in shops June 28th!
