Review: Oneira – Chapter 1 – Crimson Moon

Series: Oneira #1
Author: Cab
Artist: Di Meo Federica
Publisher: Europe Comics
Released: July 27, 2022
Received: NetGalley

Do you think you could survive a world of terror and death? Personally, I’m voting on no. The world of Oneira is dark and full of nightmares – sometimes more literally than one would like.

One of the best things about grabbing comics from NetGalley is that I can go into them without expectations. That lets them surprise me! However, I’ll admit that I wasn’t blown away by Oneira, much to my disappointment. The artwork made me want to love it, you know?

The series has potential, especially with the darker tones and heavier fight scenes. What it is lacking (at the moment) is context. There wasn’t much explanation for the world or even the fight that occurred. So while it was a very good-looking fight, it ultimately had no stakes for the readers. I hope future chapters will work to change that because I can see the potential here.

Thanks to Europe Comics and #NetGalley for making this book available for review. All opinions expressed are my own.
