    I love a good thriller/mystery and this has the early signs of a great addition to these genres. As the issue ends just as we the reader, become fully immersed and need the second issue right away. DSTLRY has assembled an all-star cast and this book needs to find it's way into the monthly rotations. Read Full Review

    Each DSTLRY comic that is released proves even more that they have a talent pool like no other and each series tries their best to top the last. This is no different with White Boat.

The combination of top-tier writing and stunning artwork from Scott Snyder and Francesco Francavilla respectively sets a high bar and they achieve it. White Boat is definitely worth the journey.

    Very interesting so far. I don't like this style of art at all, but the writing and story is more than enough to keep my attention. Looking forward to seeing where it goes.

    There's enough to like here, even at this outrageous price point, to give it one more to see what it's doing.

    A little confused by the ending but def still a pull. I prefer Spectregraph over this but I do enjoy Snyder's in depth writing here, the last chapter moves very quickly. Cliffhanger felt predictable but interesting nonetheless.

    Not sure what I just read, especially at the end, but I am intrigued. I guess we'll find out where this goes. Has lots of potential.
