Since being turned undead by the crew of the cursed Pirate ship, The Black Galleon, Marco Esperanza has spent the past 400 years tied to the bow of a sunken vessel, clinging to life in the dark, briny, deep. His confinement at the bottom of the sea ends when he is discovered by film director Joel Cameron's submarine on a scouting expedition for his next film. Hungry to film a live vampire battle, Cameron urges Marco to seek out the man responsible and have his revenge.

This review is from: Sea of Red, Vol. 1: No Grave But the Sea (Paperback)
HiI am Kieron Dwyer, one part of the SEA OF RED team, so this isn't really a review. I actually wanted to respond to "Bob's" review, which is inaccurate (although I'm glad that he at least LIKES the book). SEA OF RED isn't a 6 issues series, it is an ongoing series, and all the trade collections will collect 4 issue arcs (5-8, 9-12, et al). While he might have made this error based on the fact that there are currently only 6 issues of the series in print, it is NOT a limited series, and all published issues will eventually be released in collected form. I'd also like to take issue with his calling us "cheap bastards:" in fact, this book is priced at 8.95 cover price (probably cheaper through Amazon) for four issues, which were originally 2.99 each. So instead of charging the 12 dollars (or more) that a collection COULD HAVE cost, we offfered it at a substantial discount (which cuts directly into our profits). We did this to help encourage people who were unable to obtain the SOLD OUT first few issues of this series get onboard at a reasobale price. We are anything but "cheap."

This review is from: Sea of Red, Vol. 1: No Grave But the Sea (Paperback)
I don't read many new graphic novels or comics these days (I'm fifty years old), but my son said I had to read this. He claimed it was worth my attention. Boy, was he ever right about that-- the art, the writing, the whole package is PERFECT! Can't wait to read the subsequent volumes.The thing reads like a brilliant set of storyboards for a smash movie. The art (sometimes reminding me of Gene Colan's old stuff) is evocative of mist and rot... that's a *good* thing here. The plot recalls Tim Powers' classic novel "On Stranger Tides," mixing pirates with the undead. Horror-fantasy doesn't get better than that, and "Sea of Red" is of the same calibre. Well worth seeking out!

you know that he's passionate about what he's done and that he's willing to stand by it. The creators aren't "cheap" at all. Great art, unique story, and an all around satisfying read.
