    Mars Attacks seems like it's a select genre. This is a mistake to think this though. This book is about characters, survival and man's struggle to get along in the face of a global invasion. Layman is telling an excellent story here that looks like it will have arms and legs for quite some time to come. This is a series to jump on now before it takes off and never looks back. I highly recommend picking this up. Read Full Review

    And best of all, Layman makes the Martians the focus of the book. Unlike IDW’s Godzilla in which the title character barely shows up amidst a boring plot, Mars Attacks balances the Martian invaders’ story expertly with the human fight for survival. I can’t believe how won over I am from a book that I thought I would cast off. Read Full Review

    If youre already reading this series then you will continue to enjoy it after reading this issue. For those that are on the fence, I could only recommend it if you have room on your pull list for a sci-fi book that is well-written. The lack of depth will certainly turn off some readers but this book doesnt present itself as a serious examination of anything other than the indomitable human spirit and our penchant for violence.

    From the first issue, the writing and illustrations have been top notch, with no shortage of comical violence. Read Full Review
