Summary
A group of Inquisition agents pursue the deadly elven warrior Fenris in this new chapter from the world of BioWare's dark fantasy RPG！
From the video game developer of genre-defining roleplaying games such as Baldur's Gate， Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic， and Mass Effect comes a canonical continuation of stories begun in the multiple game of the year award-winning Dragon Age: Inquisition。
The power of the substance known as red lyrium is as dark as it is devastating， and a mysterious weapon containing a frightening amount of it is about to fall into the wrong hands。 Enter knight Ser Aaron Hawthorne， elven thief Vaea， the magekillers Tessa Forsythia and Marius， and fledgling con artist Calix Pryde--a motley team of Inquisition agents whose task it is to recover the lyrium artifact before it's too late。 In order to do so， fellow agent Varric Tethras directs them to recruit one more to their party， a former associate from Kirkwall--Fenris。 However， as the team quickly discovers， this legendary fighter has an agenda of his own， and convincing him to join their cause will be no small feat。

I'm not ashamed to say I read this because Fenris is on the cover。 The positives is that Fenris is in character and his new haircut is cute。 Also， they gave him the forehead dots that weren't in the game but in the concept art that I am quite partial to。That ends my positives。 I would probably have been less confused if I read the other comics before this （but they didn't revolve around a character I cared about so。。。）。 But reading from this point was quite confusing。 Too many characters were in I'm not ashamed to say I read this because Fenris is on the cover。 The positives is that Fenris is in character and his new haircut is cute。 Also， they gave him the forehead dots that weren't in the game but in the concept art that I am quite partial to。That ends my positives。 I would probably have been less confused if I read the other comics before this （but they didn't revolve around a character I cared about so。。。）。 But reading from this point was quite confusing。 Too many characters were introduced too quickly。 I still don't know anyone's name （except the one character who was in the video games）。 Also， there were way too many flashbacks and time jumps。 It was difficult keeping all the timeline straight。 Also， the art had a habit of being inconsistent。 The art isn't bad， but facial proportions kept changing。 Not even altering over the length of the comic but from frame to frame， which is jarring。Overall， mediocre。 But I'm happy to have a pretty picture of Fenris on my bookshelf。 。。。more

A mysterious person who has been freeing slaves throughout the land joins our group。Our group， by the way， is the group we have assembled from past volumes of the Dragon Age books。 This detail isn't really touched on or addressed in anyway。 I think a big part of the problem with this book is that it assumes you recall who every person in the group is from previous volumes。 Where a quick summary or cast page would be tremendously helpful， the book foregoes that for a more "jump into the middle of A mysterious person who has been freeing slaves throughout the land joins our group。Our group， by the way， is the group we have assembled from past volumes of the Dragon Age books。 This detail isn't really touched on or addressed in anyway。 I think a big part of the problem with this book is that it assumes you recall who every person in the group is from previous volumes。 Where a quick summary or cast page would be tremendously helpful， the book foregoes that for a more "jump into the middle of the story" type feel。 Unfortunately it comes off as a point of confusion and even someone who has read the previous volumes （like me） struggles to remember who is who and what they did in the past。 The story is very straightforward and kind of。。。 sparse。 It has to do with the Blue Wraith， the person who has been freeing slaves， and how he joins the group。 One of the members' dad gets kidnapped， so they go to find him。。。。and realize there may be more than one villain in this story。 That's pretty much it。 I really was enjoying the Dragon age books in the early volumes。 They seemed well thought out and they took their time to tell a story。 Recent volumes however seem to rush the plot in order to fit it into 3 issues， and I think for a world as robust as the one of Dragon Age， you need a foundation to build off of。 Hopefully the next volume takes it's time a bit more。 。。。more

A comic series based on my favorite video game series sounds like a slam dunk， but this story was too hard to follow with random time jumps and ultimately pretty boring。 Disappointing。

（3，8 of 5， points down for increasing shortness）Well， with this story I felt that the author started to "losing his breath" here。 I see the tendency to create some company of heroes， but the increasing level of "main characters"， storylines and decreasing number of pages is a recipe to failure。 It's not complete failure here， but I feel the good qualities are rather diminished here。 One more deterioration of my reader's experience: the end。 Previous stories had a satisfying end， this feels like （3，8 of 5， points down for increasing shortness）Well， with this story I felt that the author started to "losing his breath" here。 I see the tendency to create some company of heroes， but the increasing level of "main characters"， storylines and decreasing number of pages is a recipe to failure。 It's not complete failure here， but I feel the good qualities are rather diminished here。 One more deterioration of my reader's experience: the end。 Previous stories had a satisfying end， this feels like closing a storyline but hanging in the middle of a bigger one。Yeah， I quite enjoyed the reading， but I'm bummed out how it deteriorated in expected ways。 。。。more

Im glad u have this for the pretty cover but when it comes to the actual contents of this I was left feeling more than a little disappointed。Fenris is pretty much one of my all time favorite characters and there was pretty much nothing of his actual personality or development that shone through。 Him being bitter and hating the other when they split up for safety at the end of the game ？ Like where in the f did that come from？ Also the coffin method or whatever the hell special warriors mentioned Im glad u have this for the pretty cover but when it comes to the actual contents of this I was left feeling more than a little disappointed。Fenris is pretty much one of my all time favorite characters and there was pretty much nothing of his actual personality or development that shone through。 Him being bitter and hating the other when they split up for safety at the end of the game ？ Like where in the f did that come from？ Also the coffin method or whatever the hell special warriors mentioned in this make no sense。 But making fenria having come from this artifact directly contradicts what he said in game。 Which to what I remeber he said the lyrim was either carved or burned into his flesh。 Not that he was stuffed into a random macguffin coffin。 Like so much of that amd then him saying he was sure it was broken makes utterly no sense considering how much time he spent still as a slave to dangerous after that。 Like。。。。。。 he didnt repair it in all that time？ I think the main thing now that I've read slme more of the dragon age comics is that they severely suffer from being so short。 There's absolutely no time to explore or go into anything and comic wise as a story they're incredibly weak as a result。 I'm not a huge fan of the art style but at least it's not the worst I've seen but that rralky isn't saying much considering all the artists they have at their disposal。 So many adult charcters end up looking extreme childish and it a bit jarring。 Also using the quanari as a plot device again with utterly no explanation where it doesn't make sense for them to be going after this artifact？？ It just strikes me as lazy writing but again I think the main issue is how short these comics are in the first place。 In summary this is worth getting as a fenris fan but only for the cover。 Don't expect a great stpry explaining what he's been doing or even for tge good parts of his character to appear。 。。。more

Was just okay。 Nothing special。 The story and characters just felt bland and boring。 The beginning started off a little interesting but it went downhill from there。 Probably wouldn't read this story again。 I also really didn't like the way they updated Fenris' look。 Was just okay。 Nothing special。 The story and characters just felt bland and boring。 The beginning started off a little interesting but it went downhill from there。 Probably wouldn't read this story again。 I also really didn't like the way they updated Fenris' look。 。。。more

I had high hopes and high expectations because I absolutely love Fenris。 But this was definitely a letdown， unfortunately。 I wish the story had really been about Fenris， not Francesca。 He's the title character， after all。 But instead he's a flat， one-dimensional version of the character from Dragon Age II。 And the art was。。。less than awesome。 Overall， I was just pretty disappointed with Blue Wraith。 I had high hopes and high expectations because I absolutely love Fenris。 But this was definitely a letdown， unfortunately。 I wish the story had really been about Fenris， not Francesca。 He's the title character， after all。 But instead he's a flat， one-dimensional version of the character from Dragon Age II。 And the art was。。。less than awesome。 Overall， I was just pretty disappointed with Blue Wraith。 。。。more

** 3。3 **Después de leer Tevinter Nights， este comic me deja bastante insatisfecho。El problema con la mayoría de los comics de la franquicia es que resultan ser intrascendentes。 Las líneas narrativas son poco interesantes y apresuradas。 Estos mismos defectos se encuentran en Blue Wraith， con el plus de que la historia me pareció aún más apresurada， muy corta e inacabada。 Claro que el desenlace， si se le puede llamar así， no brinda resolución porque es obvio que busca continuar en otro tomo。 Si b ** 3。3 **Después de leer Tevinter Nights， este comic me deja bastante insatisfecho。El problema con la mayoría de los comics de la franquicia es que resultan ser intrascendentes。 Las líneas narrativas son poco interesantes y apresuradas。 Estos mismos defectos se encuentran en Blue Wraith， con el plus de que la historia me pareció aún más apresurada， muy corta e inacabada。 Claro que el desenlace， si se le puede llamar así， no brinda resolución porque es obvio que busca continuar en otro tomo。 Si bien el arco de dos personajes parece haberse cerrado， se abre el de otro más que se une a la caravana， que a este paso quién sabe en donde va a terminar。 Espero que sea en algún lugar interesante dentro del próximo juego， y no en meras entradas de codex， porque si es así que pérdida de tiempo y de recursos。Igual vale la pena leer este cómic por Vaea， que es una cutie pie， y desde su introducción en Knight Errant， me ha parecido el personaje más interesante y mejor desarrollado de estás historias。Y supongo que a los fans de Fenris les encantará verlo de nuevo。 En lo particular， lo encontré bastante insoportable en Dragon Age 2， pero curiosamente aquí me pareció más digerible。Ahh， y Autum sure is the very best girl。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 To be completely honest， I'm very disappointed a comic about Fenris barely had any of him in it- especially considering how much of a fan favorite he is。 His character did not feel like him whatsoever， the depiction of the Qunari was disappointing but also not surprising （I'm not sure why most DA comic artists essentially always depict them as unredeemable monsters every single time）， and the new characters introduced felt like a lazy rehash of many DA characters already found in the universe。 I To be completely honest， I'm very disappointed a comic about Fenris barely had any of him in it- especially considering how much of a fan favorite he is。 His character did not feel like him whatsoever， the depiction of the Qunari was disappointing but also not surprising （I'm not sure why most DA comic artists essentially always depict them as unredeemable monsters every single time）， and the new characters introduced felt like a lazy rehash of many DA characters already found in the universe。 I felt no interest or connection to anyone but the dog， and maybe the older male character in the party。 Though I don't remember anyone's names even though I read this only two weeks ago。This could've been a good read if the story and direction was different。 It really felt like Fenris was a side character in this; unimportant and forgettable， and only happened to be there despite this comic supposedly being about him。 。。。more

I was really excited for this comic at first and though I believe it didn't live up to the hype， I don't necessarily believe its as bad as some people say， I'll admit it was hardly the most exciting dragon age comic。 I liked the stuff that was added to the lore in the comic like how we discover Fenris got his marks but aside from that nothing much happened honestly。 Again I don't think it's a bad comic but it's too okayish when it comes to mostly everything apart from the lore。 I was really excited for this comic at first and though I believe it didn't live up to the hype， I don't necessarily believe its as bad as some people say， I'll admit it was hardly the most exciting dragon age comic。 I liked the stuff that was added to the lore in the comic like how we discover Fenris got his marks but aside from that nothing much happened honestly。 Again I don't think it's a bad comic but it's too okayish when it comes to mostly everything apart from the lore。 。。。more

This book was disappointing for a number of reasons。 The two perspective characters， the mage and the elf girl with the really stupid looking Mabari that looks more like a Corgi than anything actually in the Dragon Age games， are both obnoxious for opposite reasons。 Not to mention flat and boring。 The art is not even that good， a big problem for a graphic novel if you ALSO have terrible dialogue and the story is boring。 The only reason I gave it more than one star is because you could technicall This book was disappointing for a number of reasons。 The two perspective characters， the mage and the elf girl with the really stupid looking Mabari that looks more like a Corgi than anything actually in the Dragon Age games， are both obnoxious for opposite reasons。 Not to mention flat and boring。 The art is not even that good， a big problem for a graphic novel if you ALSO have terrible dialogue and the story is boring。 The only reason I gave it more than one star is because you could technically follow what I guess they're calling a 'plot' in this thing。 Oh and Fenris's new hair cut looks really stupid。 1/10 would not recommend。 A little disappointed I decided to spring for the hardcover after actually reading it。 。。。more

Absolutely love me some Fenris， always， and it was a fun read for sure。 It did feel kind of rushed though， and of course part of me is going to forever wish the Fenris romance was part of DA official canon （in my head and heart Fenris will be returning to Hawke once hes done）

I got to see my boy Fenris smile because he liked the dog better than the people。 Good stuff right there。Even though I’ve played the games， I wish there was a bit more explanation as to where in the timeline this takes place in relation to DA: Inquisition。 Maybe this will make more sense once I’ve played the Trespasser DLC。 Either way， I’m happy to see my favorite companion from DA2 show up again。

Blue Wraith picks up immediately after Deception。 If you haven't read it， I'd highly recommend it before picking up Blue Wraith。Blue Wraith keeps with the previous comic's introduction of a new primary character with previous primaries taking secondary roles。 It follows the party as they continue to track down a magical lyrium artifact and they add Fenris （from Dragon Age 2） to the party。Overall， the story seemed more haphazard than previous comics。 The party gets split early and instead of one Blue Wraith picks up immediately after Deception。 If you haven't read it， I'd highly recommend it before picking up Blue Wraith。Blue Wraith keeps with the previous comic's introduction of a new primary character with previous primaries taking secondary roles。 It follows the party as they continue to track down a magical lyrium artifact and they add Fenris （from Dragon Age 2） to the party。Overall， the story seemed more haphazard than previous comics。 The party gets split early and instead of one full story it feels like you get half of two stories。 The drawing style is fine and the writing feels like Dragon Age。 It's a decent read but not the best of the series。 。。。more

Real bummer， I was STOKED about this book because I love my boy Fenris but it just wasn't well executed， none of the characters were meaningfully introduced， the plot was very scattered， the pacing was choppy， and the art/layout didn't help at all， it was very hard to follow what was happening。 Two stars because the covers are gorgeous and because Fenris。。。exists in it。 Real bummer， I was STOKED about this book because I love my boy Fenris but it just wasn't well executed， none of the characters were meaningfully introduced， the plot was very scattered， the pacing was choppy， and the art/layout didn't help at all， it was very hard to follow what was happening。 Two stars because the covers are gorgeous and because Fenris。。。exists in it。 。。。more
