For the past few issues, each subsequent issue has surpassed the previous one. It's the case with Strange Adventures #6 as well. King has set up the reader to believe one thing and then turned things around to something unexpected. The use of real human emotion is what makes this series so engaging. These are emotions that anyone can relate to that has nothing to do with the ostensible science fiction genre. Do yourself a favor and pick up this series. It's not too late. Read Full Review

Strange Adventure #6 is another fantastic issue. If you are waiting for the trade, it will be a must buy once it is out. However, each issue seems to understand what serialized storytelling is about. This comic stands along perfectly while also servicing a larger narrative. Read Full Review

Alanna takes a winter walk with Mister Terrific in ‘Strange Adventures' #6 while we once again get to see Adam Strange is action and in flashback on Rann. Alanna revels herself to be one tough nut while I worry for Adam after her discussions with her interrogator. A great issue that contrast the inaction of Earth with the all-out action of war against the Pykkts. Halfway though and I feel that I'm only just getting to how the real Alanna. Read Full Review

OverallThis was a pretty good issue overall. I liked the whole conversation between Mr. Terriffic and Allanna and how that was all juxtaposed with the flashback sequences. If there is one small criticism it would be that six issues in and we are still waiting for something big to happen on the Earth. You know like the Pykkt invasion that the writer is teasing us with.

This is a solid series that keeps getting better with each new issue! Read Full Review

The Gerads segments, as usual, are gritty and compelling, but it's the Doc Shaner segments on Rann that are the star of the issue. Read Full Review

Strange Adventures #6 is the high point of the series showing of the cerebral nature of it all. Like discussed above, it's a dance between two highly intelligent people as they figure each other out. The investigation continues as Michael still searches for the truth and we the reader are continued to be forced to question everything we're shown in the past. Read Full Review

Mitch Gerads delivers some stunning art in the moments between Alanna and Holt. The scenes are beautiful to look at and are powerful in their subtlety. Shaner delivers some amazingly detailed and beautifully done battle scenes on Rann as well and both interludes enhance the story greatly. Read Full Review

Strange Adventures is pretty much continuing on as it has by giving us the two main views but with a lot of nuance and uncertainty as to what the truth is. There's the truth as we want to believe it and there's what's being told to us, but everything can change with one slide move to the side and taken from a different view. I really liked Michael and Alanna's time together here both in the dialogue and the artwork while the entire adventure on Rann with the fight against the Pykt was just amazingly well done. It's a beautifully intriguing tale that will have me questioning things probably up until the final panel and an overall re-evaluation, but this is a really engaging journey to be on.

This is yet another good issue in Strange Adventures that builds on the previous issues while supplying new insight and direction. Strange Adventures is modern, mature, and mesmerizing as it unfurls its mystery and deep human emotion on every page. Read Full Review

While the series is taking its time and winding down for a moment, the characters are becoming more developed and the mystery grows more intriguing. Read Full Review

Hopefully King can start advancing the story more as theres been too many issues now where little has been revealed and the story feels like its stuck in place. Read Full Review

Strange Adventures #6 reveals much of Adam Strange's war against the Pykkts, and in doing so reveals its own oddly detached perspective on war. Read Full Review

Art was unbelievable.

Probably the better issue of them all. The intelectual battle between Alana and terrific is fasicinating

This was so good. I loved how neatly it was bookended and it keeps you flip flopping on who to side with.

Now this was a better issue than the last few. It focused on Mr. Terrific, Alana is smug as usual but finally gets called out, and it was a satisfying chapter that felt complete. If only the art was better. From the scratchiness in Evan Shaner's pencils to Mr. Terrific's weird neck growth, I can definitely feel the strain on the artists in this issue. I hope next issue can impress me from both a writing and artistic perspective.

I am not as high on this issue as most of the critics are. The battle scenes are necessary to the advancement of the story but I didn't find them all that compelling. Alanna's killing of the Pykkt during their parlay shows the beginning of her change from innocence to her present cynical self. She tries to win over Terrific to her side, but he isn't buying it, literally leaving her in the cold at the end. Alanna is elusive in telling Terrific what they did to the Pykkts to win & the details of the death of her daughter. She shows little emotion as a mother when the topic is brought up. She treats it as an unfortunate event like a car crash rather than as a murder. Why Adam would be foolish enough to endanger his daughter remains to be seen. Is she being held as a hostage for some reason? more

I liked this issue more than previous, it felt... more.

First off, Beautiful cover B :)
Story wise-I simply fail to see how all of these different people get behind Strange, so much they are chanting his name and such. What has lead up to that? The development of that was missed.
Artwork and colors continue to be good but the story isn't captivating nor entertaining.
The highlight for me is the whole Alanna and Mr Terrific scenes.

I don't like this series very much BUT Mr. Terrific is absolutely one of the best characters in a comic I'm reading right now.
