    Black Nerd Problems - Mikkel Snyder

    Dec 16, 2020

    This is a pivotal moment in the series, because it showcases how the creative team can fully leverage the comic book media to tell a truly striking story. The impassioned writing and deft artwork combine to be a magnificent tour de force that captures the imagination and has the distinction of being a story that can only truly exist in this mixed modal media. This is the type of issue that gets me excited about the future of comics and the beauty of the page. Read Full Review

    But Why Tho? - Max Funkey

    Dec 17, 2020

    I feel like every time I review an issue of this series I have to rein myself in from just babbling about how impressed I am. We Only Find Them When They're Dead #4 is no different. Read Full Review

    We Only Find Them When They're Dead #4 gives us pieces of the history that is between Captain Georges and Paula Richter. Her rage and determination to see him dead is given a form. The emotions that are displayed in the phenomenal artwork are masterful. This book is unique, intriguing, and is not a series I recommend sleeping on. Read Full Review

    The Super Powered Fancast - Deron Generally

    Dec 16, 2020

    Simone Di Meo delivers some beautiful visuals throughout this issue. So many of the panels are filled with great details and emotion. I continue to be in awe at how the art engenders emotion from the reader and I cannot wait to see more. Read Full Review

    The gods must be silent in this "so close" issue that keeps the camera in tight focus on personal challenges instead of grander considerations.  Read Full Review

    Great series with one flaw: the illustration style, as awesome as it is, can be hard on the eyes sometimes. This issue in particular had quite a few panel that made it difficult to see what's going on, making it difficult to follow the story.

    The protagonists and their hunter have indeed found a live God. But the hunter doesn't care. How do Malik and the small crew of the Vihaan II get out of it? Gotta read the book! Ewing's story is dense, which is interesting as it's anything but over-written. Every word has meaning, and it takes a study of the page to get where it's headed (and I'm not sure that I do). But Simone DiMio's art and colors are the star of the book once again. Lavish work, just gorgeous.

    We Only Find Then When They're Dead Issue: 4 "The Glorious Quest" Publisher: Boom Studios @boom_studios Writer: Al Ewing @al_ewing Artist: Simone Di Meo @simone_dimeo Colors: Mariasara Miotti @mariasara.miotti Georges Malik and his crew have become the firsts to encounter a living God. Georges prepares to meet the god face to face, sacrificing himself, but Paula and his crew have other ideas. The crew of Vihaan II activate their ship's autopsy machinery and kill the God while Paula and Georges prepare for their final showdown. I love the art and the use of color is beautiful. But the story has lost me a little bit. It's a great concept, but personally, I feel that it missed its mark. Once the entire arc is finished I plan on more
