Editorial Reviews
“This book is bangin’! If you miss Domino from our run, she’s back, with a great espionage/thriller take. Tristan Palmgren nailed it!”
– Gail Simone, author of Domino Vol 1 and Hotshots
“An action-packed adventure… this is definitely worth checking out.”
– Track of Words
“The Harrowing of Doom plays out like a movie… The conclusion felt earned and I was wholly satisfied with the tale I’d been given. And I will never say no to more Marvel in my life.”
– The Paperback Collector
“I really enjoyed The Head of Mimir, it’s an accessible read that clips along at a good pace, but also offers deeper rewards for fans of the source material, whether it be Marvel, the Norse Sagas, or both.”
– Fistful of Meeples
