GREG RUCKA proudly presents a new direction in adventure with...COMPASS!
Deep in the belly of the underworld, undying beasts and warrior ghouls await...but can Shahidah El-Amin survive the last deadly guardian of the fabled Cauldron of Eternal Life? Finding her way through the darkness is only the beginning-outside the cavern, a Mongolian war party awaits! From the acclaimed OLD GUARD: TALES THROUGH TIME team of writers ROBERT MACKENZIE and DAVE WALKER (LAZARUS SOURCEBOOK) and artist JUSTIN GREENWOOD (LAZARUS: X +66, Stumptown), Shahi's quest for the prize of immortality nears its thrilling end!
Overall. For me, Compass is easily one of the comic book highlights of 2022 when it comes to giving us a really good story with some strong female leads. I've really enjoyed the writers notes about the various parts of history that the book is referencing. This addition really adds value to the book and I hope that both writers get the opportunity to release a collected edition of this book in trade paperback format. Read Full Review

'Compass' is a marvelous adventure series entering its penultimate issue with all the action you expect and the emotional weight you don't. Shahidah and Ling reunite and work together to take one of the greatest archeological treasures in human history. But it's their friendship that proves to be more valuable. Buy it for the adventure, enjoy it for the action, cherish it for the characters, and learn from its reference materials. One of the year's best and smartest new titles. Read Full Review
