4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 137 ratings

The Siege is on! Harry Dresden and his team of young Wardens are trapped in an isolated house surrounded by hundreds of Red Court vampires. But are the Vampires really after the Venatori Harry and co. are there to save, or are they after a bigger prize? And if there is another reason for the Red Court's presence, why didn't the White Council tell their Wardens? Harry has an entire night to discover the truth...if he can keep his charges alive for the next twelve hours or so! This all-new, pulse-pounding original story of the Dresden Files continues!

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2014
This is the second comic-issue in "Jim Butcher's Dresden Files: War Cry," a 5-part mini-series published by Dynamite Comics. It's written by Jim Butcher & Mark Powers, with pencils by Carlos Gomez, and takes place some four months after "Dead Beat," the 7th novel in the Dresden Files series.

The second instalment of "War Cry" picks up where we ended the previous issue: Warden Harry Dresden and his team, which consists of Yoshimo, Carlos Ramirez and "Wild Bill" Meyers, are in the town of Montezuma, at the house of a group of Venatori Umbrorum. Their mission: to get them out before all Hell breaks loose. The catch: night has fallen, and they are surrounded by masses of vampires from the Red Court. And the Venatori, led by a woman named Catherine Taylor, don't seem to want to be moved. So why are the vampires bombarding the place with rocks instead of staging a full-on assault, that would be easily able to overwhelm the few defenders? Even weirder, the leader of the vampires, Baron Bravosa, calls for Dresden to come out for a parley. So what's the big secret that's hidden in this place, and that the Red Court wants so badly?

Story-wise this 26-page comic suffers from being the second part of a 5-part mini-series. Yes, there's a lot of action, but it doesn't significantly move the story forward. It feels too much like treading water until we get to the good part of the story-arc. Hopefully next issue, as might be implied by Harry's statement that ends the issue. The art by Carlos Gomez is great, even better than in the first issue. Very crisp and clean, and he's good at depicting action. This issue's got some great splash-pages, and especially the two-page splash of the "big secret" is awesome to behold. Anyway, for the above-named reason, I settled on four stars. But this series is still a very entertaining read and I'll be sure to pick up the next issues to see how the story works out.

a very well written and illustrated episode in the Dresden files. I cannot praise Jim Butcher as much as he deserves, and the Dresden files are very adaptable to the graphic novel genre.

This is the second in the War Cry series where we learn that Dresden and the warden's who were sent to protect are unaware that things are not as they seem. Will they learn the truth and will they survive the attack from the vampires.

this is really shaping up to be a great story to go between novels and also good segue into forth coming novels.

It was good to read the story of what happened in the gap between the books, if you're a Dresden fan then this is a nice little story that gives a bit more on the characters of the other wardens.
