Flash back to the end of the world. With time running out until the collapse of space-time, James leads an effort to ensure the survival of humanity and spark a new Big Bang, but he might already be too late. The cosmological thrill-ride from the director of Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods continues.
Like I said, there's a lot of interesting work coming out of Black Mask and they have potential to really make an impact in the comics publishing world. Last Born is no exception and I've enjoyed the first two issues very much so far. I'm still not quite sure where everything is headed but I'm enjoying the ride. If you are a fan of mind-binding sci-fi that takes place across realities then this is the book for you. Read Full Review
