The Last Fall #2

Aug 27, 2014

When it comes to civilisations on the brink of extinction due to a dying star, the unifying foundation tends to be one of ancient civilisations that have risen and fallen. If the sun's dying it's probably really, really old and if the unfortunate inhabitants of its satellites are sophisticated enough to escape, that's probably because they've been around a long time too " but there is no sense of that history here. Maybe that will be revealed as the story unfolds"

Star Trek: City On The Edge Of Forever #3

Dec 31, 1969

Whilst Ellison's original source may have it's issues the oportunity to see it presented in such loving fasion is not to be missed and it will be interesting to see how the remainder of this much loved story plays out.

Judge Dredd #26

Dec 23, 2014

One of the things that sets IDW's Dredd aside from the pack and above the rehashed greatest hits that many have offered the American market before is the bravery to have some real length to the story arcs and here we seem to be finally coming to the end of a tale that has been almost two years in the telling but remains accessible to new readers throughout. They will for sure be twists ahead though and anyone choosing to follow along will not be disappointed.
