“I’m getting a little tired of saying nice things about IDW’s Smoke and Mirrors.
As I’ve said ad nauseum, the best part of this series is its imagination. The amount of new, original ideas Costa, Browne, and Armstrong threw out there in the first three issues were crazy, and there hasn’t been a stupid or unimportant one in the bunch. I figured by issue 4 they would settle down and just push through the plot using all the pieces they already put in place. Nope. There is more plot than in previous issues, yes, but as the pieces are put in place for the final issue, we’re still introduced to some more familiar concepts such as naming andlodestones. These more traditional folk magics are just as smoothly integrated into Smoke and Mirrors‘ lore as the “Familiarize a Cat” app.”
