Review Overview

Rare Flavours is a new BOOM! Studios comic series from Eisner, Harvey, and Ringo Award-nominated team of writer Ram V (Detective Comics, Blue In Green) and artist Filipe Andrade (Fantastic Four, Star).

In Rare Flavours we follow Rubin Baksh, a demonic Rakshasa, and his partner Mo as they travel through India in search of the best local delicacies. But will they be able to capture the essence of the cuisine and the people behind it in their documentary?

The first thing that sets Rare Flavours apart is its unique and intriguing story. The narrative of this comic series primarily revolves around Rubin, a demonic food enthusiast, and Mo, his human documentary filmmaker partner. The pair embarks on a mission to discover the hidden gems of Indian cuisine and create a documentary series that showcases both the cuisine and its culture to the world.

The characters’ unique backgrounds and personalities make for an interesting dynamic that only adds to the story’s appeal. Rubin’s demonic nature adds a macabre twist to his love for cuisine, while Mo’s past experiences cast a shadow of doubt on their goals. The story’s pacing is well-balanced, and the narrative tackles both humorous and serious themes with poise.

The abstract art style in Rare Flavours is sure to impress readers who appreciate creativity and artistry. Filipe Andrade’s artwork includes a distinctive blend of abstract and realistic styles, giving the story a unique feel. The artwork’s imperfections and rough edges add to its charm and give it a distinct personality.

However, it’s important to note that the style may not be everyone’s cup of tea. Some readers may find the abstract art style too overwhelming, while others may find it difficult to follow the narrative amidst the flurry of images in some panels.

Overall, Rare Flavours is an great comic series worth considering for lovers of cuisine, culture, and adventure. Its unique storyline, vivid characters, and thought-provoking themes make it stand out, and its abstract artwork adds an extra layer of creativity that readers are sure to appreciate.

Rare Flavours #1 hits local comic shops on September 20, 2023 from BOOM! Studios.
