#VOX MACHINA COMIC BOOK SERIES#

Before she can get a word in edge-wise, the baby is yanked from her arms (while her husband – I think – restrains her) and thrown in the swamp, where a pair of hands emerge from the murky waters and grab it and pull it under! What a “start” to the story! An old woman is standing over her shoulder, yelling that her baby is most certainly not fine – “it’s cursed, just like all the others”. We meet Vex (a Ranger) and Vax (a Rogue) for the first time in a desolate swamp before we actually see them, we look in on a woman, nursing a sick, almost drugged-looking baby. This issue focuses on 2 of the members: the Half-Elven twins, Vex’alia (“Vex”) and her brother, Vax’ildan (“Vax”). Those words begin the 6-issue story of how Vox Machina met and formed, before becoming the world-saving force of Critical Role’s First Season. Here is a copy of my post about Issue #1, with links to reviews for Issues #2 – #6.

#VOX MACHINA COMIC BOOK SERIES#

This time, I actually did a thing: I bought a comic book for myself! Actually, a digital, comic book series! The series is “Vox Machina: Origins”, a six-book series that’s based on the “Geek & Sundry” D&D podcast, Critical Role. “Vox Machina” is the adventuring group from the podcast but in the comic series, they have not met and formed the group. A lot of my posts come from my lack of comic reading or knowledge: one of the founders of the blog would give me a book or 2 (or series) to read for the first time and I’d write a review on it.

For the last 8 months, I’ve written a few posts on the comic book site, “Comicdom Wrecks”.
