As the Graveyard Faction terrorizes Coral City, the Movement is nowhere to be found!
So with the group of heroes finally finding their collective funny bones, Mouse in danger and a few other treats sprinkled on top of this ice cream delight of a comic, I'm happy to report that the Movement #5 is once again a comic that I'm looking forward to reading each month, rather than just a worthy, po-faced comic that I was kinda starting to feel obliged to read. Nice one Ms Simone, roll on next month. I'm looking forward to reading your book again. Well recovered, you know I always had faith in you, don't you? Read Full Review
The insertion of messages from people viewing the fight between Katharsis and Tremor was very central to this issue. Not to mention it's great that it looked like actual messages in text speech. Not only did it capture everything going wrong for The Movement at that moment, but it gave them bad publicity which was not what they needed at a time like this. Their image as heroes of the people is something which they really do need to make any progress. Read Full Review
While the rest of his team is busy having epiphanies, Mouse gets caught up with a gaggle of fairly forgettable villains, led by the cunning Cornea Killer. Artist Freddie Williams III does some of his best work in Mouse's and Burden's scenes as his rough-hewn style suits the tone of their stories. Likewise, Rafael Albuquerque's colors brings the world of The Movement to a sickly, deeply saturated life. While we probably could have done without the overabundance of baddies, issue #6 is a solid outing overall. Read Full Review
All in all, an enjoyable issue, but not as good as the other ones. Which is just fine, since the others have been really good so the series is still among the best (or near-best rather) comics for me right now. Read Full Review
All that said, it does feel like there's a little too much going on. Each member of the cast gets some great moments here but the story doesn't exactly go anywhere and that's not a good thing. There's a lot going on in this plot, and there are simply too many antagonists to keep straight at times. I'm sure that it will end up coming together eventually but for now there's just too much going on. Read Full Review
