Echidna, the Mother of Monsters, rages against Shrae. Even as their battle draws to a deadly end, new life-both human and monster-is welcomed into the world. But what's that on the horizon? Could it be...land?
From writer Cullen Bunn (UNHOLY GRAIL, X-Men Blue, Deadpool, Venom) and artist Juan Doe (ANIMOSITY: THE RISE, AMERICAN MONSTER, WORLD READER) comes a sinister tale of biblical proportions that HAD to be told at AfterShock Comics!
"Bunn, Doe, and Hill are a dream team, each contributing mightily to making this a fantastic book!" -Grant Stoye, Court of Nerds
Many big payoffs in this issue as the Dark Ark tries to stay afloat. I love how daughter Khalee is a fully developed character who might be the death of her father and how some of the monsters are more humane than those aboard the ship. The visuals are amazing, full of horrors and humanity. I still believe that this series can't end well for anyone, though the final panel assumes it might. A must read for fans of horror.

Dark Ark #10 is amazing! The story is great and it wraps up a few details that have been carried through this entire series. The artwork is magnificent, the action is thrilling and the images are terrifying and beautiful to behold. Read Full Review
Dark Ark moves us closer to things reaching a big point what with the rain close to stopping and there's a sense of dread. With Echidna dealt with and the basic sussing out of her place within the grand scheme of things and how Shrae is just a pawn himself, the dread is certainly rising. I really like how things play out on deck with the monsters being subservient to mother but also a kind of worldview shake in that she's in just as much a bind as they are and food is minimal in general. There are more breaks in the facade going on here and it's really thrilling to watch as everything feels like it's on the edge of falling apart. Read Full Review
Juan Doe is on point once again with his art. The characters look absolutely amazing as they have since issue one. Echidna really stands with her look. She just jumps off the page and holds the readers eyes. The damned souls look gruesome in the best way possible, and of course the monsters are looking their best as well. Read Full Review
Though the story itself doesn't seem to move much, "Dark Ark" #10 is an entertaining enough issue, providing just enough information for newcomers to jump in. Read Full Review
