A solid opening issue from all of the creative team. It is a compelling, character-driven modern horror story that is definitely worth following. Read Full Review
If execution is the key to good storytelling, then this team has the keys to the entire damn neighborhood. A solid first issue with all of the components that you look for in a comic and fascinating storytelling. Read Full Review
Not every book is for every reader. There will no doubt be those that will find some of the things I enjoyed about this perhaps a little staid. All I can say for certain is that I got the wright kind of chills reading this. Read Full Review
Opening with distinct characters and a compelling hook - there are enough airport staff and citizens that carnage should ensue once the nature of Haun and Hurley's threat becomes evident - this is a breezy first issue, which leaves readers with plenty of questions and a need for more. Can The Approach stick the landing (sigh)? On the basis of this smooth and confident take-off (sigh) one would think so, although poor Mac and Abigail are certainly in for a turbulent (sigh) time of it. Read Full Review
Haun and Hurley once again prove they know how to tell a story. Here is hoping for more co-writing credits between the two of them in the future. Read Full Review
The Arrival is much more than it seems and promises a neat horror premise for fans of The Void or The Thing. Read Full Review
Even if the characters are one-dimensional, readers will know something isn't quite right about the scenario, making for an intriguing read, though the final page shows off a bit more than was necessary and destroys some of the book's mystique. Still, only being the first issue, there's a lot of exciting places the narrative could potentially go, so long as it doesn't go places that are too expected. Read Full Review
Poor pacing and thin characterization hold back the first issue of what could become an interesting series Read Full Review
This first issue sets the stage for a great series. It appears that the character building is going to be on point.
It's a familiar story. It's not even trying to be original, but it did do it's job pretty well. I will come back for at least #2.
I was enjoying this until we got to the completely unoriginal ending of the issue. Are there no stories left to tell? Must we endlessly repeat the same old things??
