The best thing about independent comic creations is that the creators can do whatever they want, alongside with their top-of-the-line artistic executions. This is the case of Frank Cho‘s new independent comic series, SKYBOURNE #1, released by BOOM! Studios. As mentioned in the end of this comic, Skybourne is a fusion of Indiana Jones, Arthurian legends and James Bond. Indeed, we are introduced to two of three Skybourne siblings who possess incredible strength, steel-like armor skin and most importantly, immortality. Although unmentioned in the interiors, the biggest antagonist here already shows how powerful he is to challenge one of the immortals. And, Cho fulfills his promise a highly octane and exciting opening to make readers whet for more Skybourne to come (hopefully in the monthly basis for he is one heck of a perfectionist to begin with).
