I really enjoyed this book. Great characters. Vivid art style. My only complaint is that I now have to wait for next instalment. Looking forward to it .

This comic book thrives on aesthetics, and the mash-up of things that went into the mix is very alluring: somewhere on the spectrum between Constantine and Shadowhunters, it has gay af priests (and lesbian lady priests) battling demons by invoking magic tattoed onto their body. Impressive, right?

Where it falls short is actually the power of storytelling: I may be judging a bit too early, as this is just volume 1, but while there were hooks in it for the bigger things, and tension, they all seemed quite... surface level, and easy to predict. Mind you, I haven't read the webtoon, so my opinion is based on this volume alone.

Thank you OniPress and Netgalley for an advance copy of Covenant by LySandra Vuong.

This graphic novel is so good! The art style is absolutely stunning and the well-paced action, along with the intriguing plot, kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the story. The humor is cleverly woven into the narrative, providing laugh-out-loud moments that will brighten up the otherwise pretty dark vibes. And to top it all off, the novel is super queer, with diverse and relatable characters that will steal your heart.
Don't expect to see any romance in this first volume because it's a pretty slow burn and will come up later (but you can always keep reading on Webtoon).
The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that I wish the world-building was explained more in-depth.

Huge Thanks to Netgalley and Oni Press for this advanced copy.

Slowburning romance + Action packed comic is finally here!
The art was truly beautiful. All those blurring effect and the lighting were gorgeous. The story was kinda dark but the artist know how to put some gags that made this book felt lighter. However, as a webtoon reader, I found the layout wasn't good enough. I prefer read this in vertical format because it would give me more vibes of the story.

Overall 5/5 for enjoyment of the story and art but 3/5 for the layout

2,5/5⭐️
love the artwork in it, it's so beautiful, but I wasn't really interested in the story itself, haven't read this on webtoon before, gives shadowhunters vibes

Thank you Netgalley for providing digital advanced copy in exchange for honest review.
