Finished reading 1602: Witch Hunter Angela, this book dives into a Battleworld domain that is still living in the Elizabethan period as witches and supernatural creatures still exist and are not yet a thing of legend. The book opens up with witch hunters Angela and Serah kicking down the door of Windsor Castle to slay King James who is a Witchbreed. Shortly after Angela and Serah travel to a local tavern where they come across a new creature of magic created by this worlds version of the Enchantress. This leads the two Witch Hunters on an adventure to find these creatures and defeat the Enchantress. The book also contains the first part of Marvel's original 1602 by writer Neil Gaiman that helps to show the origins of this universe. Overall this was a great book as writers Marguerite Bennett and Kieron Gillen dive into this domain with Angela and Serah as the perfect point of view characters. The interactions and relationship between Angela and Serah is great as the book even takes time out to explore their relationship in a slightly comedic way that works perfectly for the story. The way the book brings characters like the Guardians of the Galaxy and Cloak and Dagger is incredibly intriguing with how different their origins are and the way they play a part within the story. The artwork is great as it looks fully painted which helps to make the book's aesthetic emulates the time period of the story's setting. 8/10.
