  I liked The Heathens in concept and I liked Sami Kivela's artwork as they worked to bring in some very different time periods and characters together. It took an odd turn with the dead-space that Shih found herself in and that kind of slowed down the energy of the book. Splitting the team may be realistic when you get down to how something like this would really work but it also made the finale feel like we didn't need most of the cast and it should have just been focused in Shih herself. It has things that are definitely done well across the board and it has potential but there are simply some choices that left me feeling like it undercut itself. It may read better in collected form than weekly as well, which is a consideration for new readers going forward. Read Full Review
