What's the difference between falling and flying? Can you really get so high you never land? The introductory volume of 451's critically acclaimed neo-noir fairy tale comes to a close as a showdown on the east side of Los Angeles ignites. In one corner you have Hook and his deranged, drug-riddled posse of Pirates looking to cash in on the corruption of Hollywood High's students, in the other you have The Savages willing to do anything to defend Tiger Lily and her family. Smack dab in the middle is Wendy Moria Angela Darling. Will Peter arrive in time to save the love of his life? Find out in the shocking conclusion. To die would be an awfullymore

Kudos to 451 for opting this title. With the strength of this miniseries and their recent debut of Red Dog, they've ended the year in bold fashion by making a statement in the comic book community. There truly is Imagination to Burn and we're glad 451 is bringing it with such a fun, exciting, and breakout series as NVRLND. Read Full Review
The only drawback to the finale of the series, is that it ends rather abruptly. And although this sounds like a criticism, it's a compliment.

We've no doubt that they'll return some time in the future.NVRLND #4 brings this genuinely wonderful series to close – and we can't wait to see what's in store for Peter Pan, Wendy, Tiger and of course Hook.
