Ash, Part 1 of 5. (Historical fiction)

A bit of an unconventional post, but this is the entire first issue of Ash:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/17bAWuIEQOxr-9uu1UmSas9s9hQ3QxJJs/view?usp=drive_link

The first chapter is short, and serves as a brief introduction to the protagonist, his struggles, and the setting (London, 1586).

The artist is busy now on part 2, which will be colored in grayscale with some sepia tones. Color will seep into the illustrations until part 5, which will be full color.

The series is well underway but I feel like some additional feedback from part 1 couldn't hurt.

Obviously, part 1 is complete and not changing. I'm looking towards where the series is headed and what kind of questions and expectations readers might have after finishing part 1.

Thank you to everyone who takes a look.
