Tinereţe Fără Bătrâneţe - Ep.1 Şi-am încălecat pe-o şa... by Marian Coman

In turn, the ending which probably should have been more tragic and climatic, feels rushed. *wink wink* And, you guys, you don't kill the hot red-head with pixie hair and a tentacle arm! Not so soon, at the very least!ĭespite some high-points of the story, halfway through, you get the feeling that the characters's motives and relationships with one another are not powerful enough to support their behaviour.

Shea also provides some much-needed insight in the world of TFB and how it works. I especially liked how the team made Shea different but still respected the source material. After being defeated, they are taken to a camp where they meet Shea(Scorpia) which, quite frankly, has the best character design I've seen so far. It is then that they get 'ambushed' by Gala(Gheonoaia) and her goons. We last left off with Amatheus and Panza resting in a wasteland from what was and what surely is going to be a strenuous journey. Here's hoping they'll continue the series even after Ispirescu's story is fully rendered into comic book form.TFB started on a high note, with the first issue proving itself to be a pleasant surprise. I'm pleasantly surprised by TFB and I'm excited to see what the team is going to do next. 'Poveştile lui Panza' makes for a wonderful end section and I hope it'll be reoccurring throughout the series. Now, of course, there are minor quirks here and there, but the vivid imagery provides a great experience. The art is lovely, featuring bright and beautiful colours scattered on almost every page. His unique character design helps, too.Īs for Amatheus, I expect his development will occur along the series as he heroically overcomes his trials and obstacles.

Panza is, by far, the most interesting addition and serves as a suitable and brilliant companion for Amatheus. Hopefully, they'll continue to take liberties in making the story exciting but also well-grounded into the work that they adapt. The SF twist on Petre Ispirescu's fairy tale makes it all feel refreshing yet familiar. TFB #1 is, unlike the aforementioned, an intriguing introductory issue. After Abatia #1, which, for me, was a dissapointing entry point into Romanian comics, here comes TFB (Tinereţe fără Bătrâneţe) from the already well-established HAC! BD team.
