A review of Ringbreaker from Hyperstar Comics, Facundo Nehuén López and Alan Bahr

September 20, 2023 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve been lucky enough to get a draft copy of Alan Bahr’s Ringbreaker comic. I like it a lot, although I’m not entirely sure where it’s going, but Issue #1 feels like a fast-forward to learn the lore and swiftly set up the epic story.
