Review of The Path of Skulls by Owen

16 February 2025

This isn’t even a story. This wouldn’t even constitute as a modern Doctor Who ‘cold open’. It’s 3 pages long, and in those three pages it doesn’t even try to set up something to pay off later. Like it has just given up at being a comic story. It’s a sweet little bit of the beloveds walking around but like, this isn’t a story. I’m just kind of confused. An editor read this and went: “Fine by me!” how? I feel like a deeper commentary is being made that I’m missing because surely this can’t be it?

The colouring is very beautifully done. Gives off a really cozy but still alien atmosphere. Fantastical pink skies and a paintlike shade over it, very cool. The actual drawings are really stiff and especially the characters look lifeless, but I guess it kinda works with the painted look?
