Book Review - Sainted Love Vol. 1: A Time to Fight by Steve Orlando

 

 

 

 

Sainted Love Vol. 1: A Time to Fight by Steve Orlando is about a gay couple who time travels to fight an evil force that is against their union.  Malcolm “Mac” Irina is one of the greatest inventors of his time. Unfortunately, no one has ever heard of him. His partner, John Wolf, is the toughest bare-knuckle boxer in the city. Mac is almost finished with his greatest invention, the Chronocorridor. He wants to travel to a time where he and John can live and love together freely.  Before he can complete his invention, a detective named Felt raids Mac’s lab, and the couple dives through the power-up portal to escape capture by Detective Felt.  The pair end up in a different timeline but find they are being hunted by an organization that is determined to end gay love. Will Mac and John be able to find a place where they can be themselves?

I didn’t like this graphic novel. I did finish it, but I found that the animation style and story were a bit too graphic for my reading preferences. I didn’t like the artwork and it seemed every few pages, there was an orgy.  I found the story and the characters to be one-dimensional and boring. They just seemed to be bickering about random things that didn’t add anything to the storyline. I don’t think I would continue reading the rest of the series.
