Breaking point.
Not a ton of action in this series but plenty of confrontation. These characters are interesting and the story is thought-provoking. These issues go by so fast though, while certain aspects of the story feel underdeveloped. But this issue of a great series, that has plenty to say. Read Full Review
Andr Lima Arajo and Chris O'Halloran bring a strong visual eye to the series, the opening scenes darts between the red and blues of the police and the more dialogue-driven scenes use unconventional framing, pushing characters to the edges, and sometimes the corners, of the panels, resulting in a distinctive look that ensure the series is looking to be its own thing rather than pure pastiche.

Don't get me wrong, the book is solid, just coming down from such a powerful first issue into a more predictable origin story. I'm hopeful that we will see the book move back into the promise that issue showed: a new take on superpowers for a new generation. Read Full Review
Generation Gone has been a excellent 3 issues now done. It is gradually building up, and without spoiling it the kids are learning their "powers" more and more now. I really like this concept it has been done before, but this feels a lot different and just really a fun book that is really a fun read. 8.5 out of 10...
This is a slower paced issue, despite the first couple pages being all action. It gets stale fast though with dialogue heavy scenes and set-ups for more drama. We get to finally see what we bacisally assumed would happened since the beginning as far as the relations between the 3 protagists goes. The build up was kind of missed on that aspect since it was very abvious from the start. The art is a bit uneven too (big heads much?). Still a pretty solid series but it's time for it to take off for real.
While it is a decent addition to the series it felt like it just did not have much to really stew on. Hopefully the next issue gives us a little more.
