Early reviews for v04 have been overwhelmingly positive. Indie Comic Hub gave it a 9.5/10, stating: “Ultrababes has done what Marvel and DC won’t: they’ve remembered that comics can be beautiful objects that also comment on how we live.”
"Are we communing with the spirits, or just the Wi-Fi server?"
"Tomb of Destiny Ch 1 Ch 2 V04" is a testament to how far independent adult entertainment has come. By focusing on the "Lifestyle" element, Ultrababes ensures that their work appeals to those who appreciate aesthetics as much as the narrative. It’s a polished, gritty, and visually stunning entry into a series that continues to define its own lane.
The inclusion of the phrase Lifestyle and Entertainment in the creator’s title is a deliberate positioning strategy. Most comic books are sold purely on narrative. Ultrababes, however, markets Tomb of Destiny as a into a specific aesthetic.
Some long-time fans of the original webcomic argue that v04’s lifestyle focus occasionally overshadows the plot. A review from Indie Serial Digest noted: "We love the candle, but we came for the curse-breaking. Chapter 2’s tea ritual, while beautiful, occupies four pages that could have been used to explain the Maw’s origin."
If you like Tomb Raider crossed with The Mummy (1999) but with the brakes off and the temperature cranked up, Tomb of Destiny Ch.1 & 2 v04 is essential reading.
