It's fun when a series takes chances and tells a story that's out of the ordinary, and that's what you'll find in Relics of Youth.
Like any team comic, the first issue is all about bringing together the team.
But here, you don't have a group of super-heroes. It's a gathering of teens and young adults who are compelled to find a strange island in the Bermuda Triangle.
Luckily, one member is from a wealthy family - so they hop aboard his parent's yacht to make the journey.
What they find... well, that would be telling - but there are mysteries and danger aplenty.
The series does owe a bit of a wink and a nod to the TV series Lost - which is not a bad thing at all.
It's a strong start to the series, with a unique gathering of characters, an unusual quest and lots of trouble on the horizon.
I'm anxious to see where it goes from here!
