Read the full take

Revenge of the Baskerville Bloodhound starts from a dark, memorable place: a shunned son who served his family faithfully and was failed by them. The rebirth framing is familiar by now, but the series makes its motivation clear and sticks with it. The sword action is lively, and the art does a good job with the stronger, more stylised fight scenes. The lead's determination gives the story a steady drive. The catch is that many of the beats will feel recognisable to anyone who has read a few second-chance fantasies. The series is still releasing too, so the story is still forming its shape. If you enjoy dark revenge arcs with a bit of swagger, this is an easy recommendation. If you want something surprising, look elsewhere first.
