Jeremy attempts to track down the monster responsible for his murder as well as uncover the terrifying secret behind it. Brandon finds himself amongst the dead and at the heart of the Revivalists' most sacred ritual.
From writer Ryan Parrott (OBERON, VOLITION, Power Rangers) and artist Evgeniy Bornyakov (DESCENDENT, YOU ARE OBSOLETE) comes an unnerving tale of existential horror with grave consequences.
I'm definitely enjoying Dead Day and while I know this is a short-run series overall to explore one night of events, it's the kind of thing that could be pulled out regularly over the years to deal with interesting tales and events, even an anthology kind of piece to let others play in and explore the concept with one-shot tales. Parrott's got a fun idea at work here and is digging into a good range of characters that allows Bornyakov to do some really fun stuff with. I'm digging both of the main stories and can't wait to see if there are big twists ahead to drive it all home. Read Full Review
I was surprised that this comic worked as well as it does for me, and Im happy about that as well! If The Leftovers+Purge+zombies sounds like a good time, pick this book up. Read Full Review
It feels a bit too much like "Riverdale" in the worst possible way and that doesn't really move much this issue. Other than that, Dead Day #3 is a strong comic. Read Full Review
Surprisingly good
So things are escalating on all fronts. Parrott is handling a multi-viewed story and pushing plot in a more dramatic sense. There is some dragged out dialogue pages, but its accompanied with some stellar art work by Bornyakov. I feel like the twist that came at the end of Remy's confrontation with his killer was quite awkwardly done?, though it does set up a much bigger story. How Parrott sequenced one story after another was done well, though I thought the issue as a whole could have been a bit cleaner on the execution. Still a well done issue.
