Stories about religion and our relationship with the divine are always a thorny prospect, but I feel Afterlift finds a good balance between entertaining and preachy. Thanks to the droll charm and bold emotions of the script and the consistently impressive artwork this comiXology Original stands as a sweet, effective binge-read for these uncertain times.

I enjoyed the concepts and modern adaptations of mythology in Afterlift more than I enjoyed the actual plot. That being said, the story itself is really exciting, though I found it to be a little predictable. The artwork is solid if a bit underwhelming. It's always easy to tell what's going on in each panel, though some panels are more visually exciting than others. All in all, this graphic novel was a fun read, but it didn't really wow me. Even though I wasn't necessarily blown away, this is a series worth checking out. After all, it did win Eisner, Shuster, and Harvey awards last year. Afterlift will be available on February 2nd at bookstores and February 3rd at comic book shops. Read Full Review

To sum it all up, Afterlift provides an enjoyable tale that delivers particularly well on a few moments.

All the elements of this story come together to create a perfectly competent example of comic book storytelling. Read Full Review
