Review:
Um...this was okay, it definitely wasn't as good as the other books in this series that I have read such as Grimm Fairy Tales Presents: Realm Knights and Grimm Fairy Tales Presents: Robyn Hood: Wanted.
In this story, Agent Red (Britney Waters) was called in by Hibocorp, a special branch of the government to assist in keeping a special gem from falling into the enemies hands.
But the enemy was a step ahead of them as well as heavily armed and Agent Red had to go up against them without the other members of the Realm Knights. But she did get a little help from Agent Robyn Hood (Robyn Locksley) who showed up in the second issue but other than that she had to fight alongside the soldiers who unfortunately didn't stand a chance against a horde of orcs.
I was a little disappointed with this story because it didn't seem as well written as the other two that I mentioned above. The artwork wasn't that great either, at least most of the female characters were covered up but all the unnecessary posing was ridiculous. And the artists changed from issue to issue, nothing was consistent.
Also, why did it seem like Agent Red was weakened in this? A lot of the time she could barely hold her own in a fight.
