And that's all there is to be said for now. Moore's legion of fans certainly won't be disappointed by his new project. Newcomers might not see what all the fuss is about, though. With a six week waiting period between issues, I have to recommend that curious newbies check out the numerous SiP trades first. At least then they'll be able to form a strong opinion right away.

Its a cross between Nova and Strangers in Paradise. And really good! Read Full Review
If you can make it past the clumsy opening, you're in for a treat. I only say clumsy, because the art contained within the opening pages feels so amateurish in terms of weight, perspective, and dynamics. Once we the story moves to the ground level (literally), Moore's art begins to shine. Echo is one of those books that you'll just need to take at face value. There's no real hard science involved and Moore doesn't give a lot of explanations, but it's probably for the best. Instead, we're presented with a classic science fiction situation in a more modern and realistic setting. Count me on board for next issue. Read Full Review
The long-term success of the book - at least as far as I'm concerned - lies in the strengths Moore's audience has come to expect from him. His characters and dialogue are what made Strangers in Paradise a success. It's a bit too early to tell if Julie will be as compelling a protagonist as Francine and Katchoo were in SiP, but I'm more than willing to find out. So far, Julie seems thoroughly average, but in a good way. Her problems are relatable ones, and there's an enviable peacefulness in her quiet existence as an artist, alone out in the country.

At three-fifty a pop, though benefiting from zero advertisements, I can't say that I'm ready to put Echo on my pull list. It certainly bears watching, but if Terry Moore wants more of my money, he's going to have to cut to the chase. Read Full Review
