    Comic Bastards - Austin Lanari Aug 12, 2015

    This week also contained aFuture Shockand it was a wild one. I'm having trouble deciding exactly how deep the concepts are in this one, but with visuals from John Higgins, it's a unique experience. I will definitely be on the lookout for more of writer Sally Jane Hurst because even though it wasn't a shock per se it's a gorgeously rendered little story with a focused style that likes to marinate in your gray matter long after you read it.

    Flickering Myth - Oli Davis Aug 12, 2015

    Any scene in Helium could be replaced by one in Brass Sun and you wouldn't know the difference. Ian Edginton's doubling up on plot points, narrative devices and overall tone is undoing all his fantastic world building work. Read Full Review

    -- JUDGE DREDD // ENCELADUS: OLD LIFE: The pages featuring Judge Maitland are suspenseful.

    -- HELIUM // PART TEN: I very interesting and important bit of lore is revealed, followed by quite the shocking final panel. My thrill circuits are overloading.

    -- OUTLIER // DARK SYMMETRIES: I don't know what's going on, but there's some big space monsters, so that's cool.

    -- FUTURE SHOCKS // CLOUD NINE: Weird, creepy and cool. I love the airbrush paint style.

    -- JAEGIR // TARTARUS: Deus ex machina. Lame.

    -- OVERALL: Helium is still the best, but Dredd is picking up again and the Future Shock was a welcome palette cleanser.
