This issue is a story wherein the opening and the ending are both top-notch, though the middle does tend to spin its wheels some. The rest of the issue focuses on the series' heroine, Hannah, as she attempts to discover the location of the Chimera following an unknown atrocity which leaves her traveling the world to find and slay these creepy figures. The colors and gradient feel of these opening pages showing off the supernatural beings descending on the unexpected townsfolk does a fantastic job of setting the mood, giving readers a hint as to the destruction that is about to be unleashed. The first few pages of Basilisk are perhaps its most engaging, with artist Jonas Scharf introducing the "Chimera," the main antagonists of the series that each have their own unique powers capable of cutting a swath through middle America, as they descend upon a small town with disastrous effects.
