Forced by cosmic powers to watch eternity unfold simultaneously, a dazed Colonel Weird wanders dazed through the counter-culture movement of the '60s, his own origins, and a murder investigation, struggling to find a way out of the pattern.
Colonel Weird: Cosmagog #3 is a another fun chapter in Lemire's offbeat story of the titular cosmic adventurer. This series is well worth checking out if you're a fan of Lemire's Black Hammer series, as it adds an extra dimension to that story. But it's also enjoyable in it's own right as a tribute to classic science fiction comics. Read Full Review

The Cosmagog series is one that continues to work really well for me overall even if there are some mildly repetitive moments here and there as he unravels the problem he's facing. Lemire's taking us on a really interesting journey but I'm still somewhat wary as to whether there's going to be enough meat on the bone by the end for it to have been worth it – in terms of story. In terms of spending time with the character and getting gorgeous artwork, it's worth all the time and investment here. I could easily linger on pages like this in library form for hours on end with all the detail and expressiveness. Read Full Review
Having only a passing knowledge of Black Hammer's overall plot, Colonel Weird: Cosmagog #3 doesn't quite connect like previous issues. But the visuals and dream-like state that has persisted through the series is so brilliantly done that it almost doesn't matter. Read Full Review
