Wes and Nick kick off the next chapter of their Millarworld Comics Guilds retro review with The Magic Order 3 #1, as Mark Millar returns to his flagship supernatural crime saga alongside Gigi Cavenago to expand the scope of the Magic Order in a major way. With the American and British factions already established, this new volume shifts the spotlight to the Asian chapter—introducing new players, new power structures, and a fresh perspective on how magic operates across the globe.
They break down how effectively this relaunch sets the stage for Volume 3, whether Millar successfully builds intrigue around the newly introduced characters like Sammy Liu, and how well the issue balances world-building with forward momentum after the events of the previous volume. The conversation also dives into Gigi Cavenago’s artwork, how it compares stylistically to prior runs, and whether the visual presentation enhances the darker, more international tone of the story.
Wes and Nick also examine how this issue positions itself as both a continuation and a jumping-on point, whether the stakes feel elevated heading into a new arc, and how The Magic Order 3 #1 fits within the broader Millarworld lineup as the series continues to evolve—available exclusively to Comics Guild backers.
