From New York Times bestselling and Eisner award-winning Black Hammer and Sweet Tooth creator Jeff Lemire comes this ambitious and haunting comic series about family, mourning, and reality.
As Will continues his fight across a dangerous metropolitan maze on the hunt to find his long-gone daughter, he comes face-to-face with his own literal monsters as he tries to find her and bring her home.
"Mazebook is a deeply haunting and powerfully human work by one of the greatest living masters of the comic medium. You do not want to miss this book."-James Tynion IV

Ultimately, what we have here is a beautiful, thought provoking and genuinely moving conclusion to what has been truly unique comic book series. Mazebook takes an experimental and unconventional look at the nature of grief, wrapping those themes up in a tightly structured mystery tale, and I absolutely loved it. With the likes of Sweet Tooth, Black Hammer and Descender already under his belt, it's safe to say that Lemire's creator owned credentials are pretty much unquestioned at this point, and with the Canadian cartoonist recently signing an exclusive deal with Image Comics, I honestly can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

I wasn't sure what I was getting into with this series but I'm always going to trust a Jeff Lemire project when it's one of his original works. Even when it doesn't work, it works. This one probably could have been an issue shorter and a little tighter but that's the worst I can say about it. It's not an unfamiliar concept but the execution was strong and I really like getting a chance to see Lemire's artwork from time to time because it is distinctive and interesting. This series works through some hard material at times and material that will resonate well with those that have had real heartache in their lives like the characters here has, and that just speaks to it so well. Definitely recommended. Read Full Review
A heartbreaking final issue from a writer at the top of his game. A masterclass in telling one man’s journey to reconciling himself with the worst experience of his life.
Masterpiece
Aaaaaand I cried.
Surprised more reviews haven’t been written up for this issue yet. All in all it was a satisfying, albeit predictable, end to a heartfelt story with a powerful final message written in a way only Jeff Lemire can articulate.
It really is a story about moving on, I guess the ending is not that big of a deal but it was good for what was promissed
Another worhty Lemire work
Nice way to tie things up in my opinion even though it's a little open ended. Good series overall.
Yeah, definitely one of the best comic books to come out this year, and its only been 2 weeks. Honestly the best Dark Horse comics to come out of 2021.
