The one thing this series has going for it is how it expands on its premise consistently. Here, they do that by bringing in elements of The Tempest that fit naturally into a fantastical/fanboy element (wizardry and Caliban especially). Still, I have some complaints about characterization and known people meeting each other (the final meeting between Prospero and Shakespeare is a bit of a letdown). But overall, if you've come this far you should enjoy the continuation of the story.

To begin with, it is an amazing premise--to have these characters play in a shared sandbox. It obviously builds on League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Fables. And to see the interactions is cool. I just wish that with all of the promise of the premise that it went a but further. The use of Shakespeare's fantastical elements is okay (the ghost of Hamlet's Dad, the Weird Sisters, etc.), but it really could've been expanded on. I also think that some of the interpersonal chemistry between these characters in their eventual meetings could've held for some great discussions (Hamlet and Othello could've really talked about being consumed by revenge). And the visual storytelling of the layouts sometimes leaves much to be desired. But still, it's a fantastic idea, some cool artwork, and builds towards something. Recommended, and a great way to introduce or supplement Shakespeare to those just learning about his work.… (lisätietoja)

As stated elsewhere, it's really more of a promise of a premise that sometimes leaves a little to be desired. But considering that this was considered to be a limited series and not an ongoing thing, I'm amazed that there wasn't more finality in the ending.

2.5 stars. I rounded up because it's a cool idea, and they're just getting started with it. I'll probably try one more before deciding whether or not I'm going to continue with the series.
