The immortal Viking story continues this week from Dark Horse Comics. Kill All Immortals #3 is out now.
A Viking indulges in life’s feast like a king, but hardens their heart to those mortals beneath them. As Frey travels to the mystic artic to unlock the family’s supernatural origins, she realizes there is more at stake than her romance and freedom, but how far will she go to overthrow her family’s reign?

Along with the excellent action in this issue, we also learn much more about the family.
An interesting flashback gives us more insight into the family and their attitudes. The old-time reaction was well played out, and the expressions of the various characters were used well.
Moving back to the present day, we see a brilliant combination of action and family relationships. Frey is a complex character in this series, but what is also being told well is that the rest of the family are equally as complex. They all have distinct personalities, and I love the different settings and styles for them.
Frey does undergo some soul-searching in this issue as they make their way to their next destination, and that, along with an intriguing twist at the end, makes this comic a page-turner and changes things moving forward.
I enjoyed the art and colours in this issue. The combination of the darkness and neon of the nightclub with the cold countryside is excellent. Adding to that, the action scenes are brilliantly played out and have a movie feel.
