Overall, I found We Only Find Them When They're Dead #5 to be a conclusion that makes a masterpiece out of its story's whole. Ewing has delivered a five-issue arc that absolutely drips with style, tension, and drama. Read Full Review
You would be hard pressed to find a series able to always match their interior artwork with that of the covers themselves. This series has everything you could want, a thrilling sci-fi story, a personal battle, Gods, and beautiful art. It is such an original concept that I still say if you haven't at least read an issue, you are letting yourself down. Read Full Review
A book about floating space gods knows when to go big. The genius of Al Ewing and Simone Di Meo is to know when to go small and make the character moments shine. Read Full Review
We Only Find Them When They're Dead continues tightening the screws. Just when you think there's some resolution in this issue, there's a huge cowboy cliffhanger that sets up a whole new level of intense drama moving forward. Couldn't put this thing down if you wanted to. It's excruciatingly addictive. Read Full Review
As an end to the first arc, We Only Find Them When They're Dead sticks the landing, but perhaps a little more shakily than I would have hoped. That said, I will be tuning in for the next arc when it does come up, and in a competitive market, that is a resounding endorsement. Read Full Review

I definitely need to go back and re-read some of the previous issues again, because I missed something here that didn't help with my enjoyment of this issue.
A little too much facts but still generally good.
Book One of the second story arc. Ewing's writing on a couple of levels, and I'm afraid that he's entirely lost me on the deeper one. The "gotta repair the ship and GTF outta there" theme is pretty easy, but the crew is trying to work out some backstory that suggests Georges, the ship's captain and protagonist, has a very cloudy history.
Then we cut to a different ship, different crew...and what appears to be an angry, >>very alive<< God.
Art by Simone Di Mio continues to be stunning. The combination of layouts and lens flares all over the place on coloring make for a wild visual ride. I won't lie and say that I'm not buying this book for the art. It's that good.
