I have known about the Faith comic books for a while,
however, I had never read one. I
remember there was a lot of buzz surrounding the books when they first debuted
in 2016, but I was too wrapped up in Valiant’s XO Manowar, Britannia, various
Archie Horror and Marvel comics. Even
though I had never read a Faith book, I had no problems jumping right in to
Faith: Dreamside. Boy, is it a trip!
Faith Herbert, AKA Zephyr, is a superhero on the run. While hiding in plain sight from the
authorities, Faith is summoned by Animalia, a superhero ally, to help fight an
evil enemy who only occurs in dreams. With
help from Doctor Mirage, a famous parapsychologist, Faith must travel into the
Dreamside to rescue Animalia. What Faith
doesn’t expect is that in the process, she will have to face her own fears to
defeat the evil entity taking over our dreams.
Faith: Dreamside is a 4-book omnibus with a unique storyline
by Jody Houser and wonderfully creepy artwork by MJ Kim. I knew that Faith was already an established
series and that there may be a few holes in my understanding of what was
happening in Dreamside. However, there
were plenty of clues throughout the story that helped me figure things
out. The characters are well developed
and Faith is such a relatable character.
I love her passion for being a superhero and her loyalty to her friends,
despite her fears. I really enjoyed
reading Faith: Dreamside and look forward to reading more in the series!
Thank you to Diamond Book Distributors, Valiant
Entertainment, and NetGalley for this eARC!
