The city of Albany. Old friends. Old times. Old wounds. Freedom of speech. The paradox of money. High walls and far sight. An attack from unexpected directions. Written by Ted Anderson (MOTH & WHISPER, My Little Pony, Adventure Time) with art by Nuno Plati (Alpha: Big Time, Marvel Girl).
Past acquaintances are found in Albany, plus new threats. The characters have reached their destination, but it may not hold the salvation they were hoping for. I enjoyed Lindy and what she brings to one character, as well as Princess's encounter late in the book. The visuals are terrific, capturing the scale of the location and the emotion that each character feels. The colors add immensely to the story, enhancing every facet of the visuals. Orphan Age deserves a home in your collection. Read Full Review
I continue to really dig Orphan Age and have hopes that it actually has a good and lengthy run ahead of it. I can see some easy stopping points to do smaller stories with and I'd even be in favor of a series of miniseries exploring the post-event around the world. I just want to see more of what's being explored here. Right now, Princess' story is very strong with some great character material combined with excellent artwork that fits perfectly. It's an engaging book that delivers exactly what I got out of early Walking Dead issues with how to handle a vastly changed world and what's needed to survive. I can't wait to see what's next.

Orphan Age is a modern day western centered on building characters and creating emotional attachments to it's diverse cast. A cross between The Walking Dead and The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. Read Full Review
