REVIEW

"Despite its flaws, Black Knight was an engrossing tale of human survival. It reads like a comic strip, and the story's rhythm fits perfectly within its six-episode arc of 45 minutes each. It ends satisfactorily enough that it's not a waste of time if it gets cancelled."

- Black Knight by Gabi Zietsman
