"RISE OF THE ROBOTS," CONCLUSION
The fall's big DESCENDER event concludes in explosive fashion as the UGC and the Hardwire converge, and Tim and Telsa make their final stand against the murder machine known as Tim-22. This issue forever alters the course of DESCENDER.
Each issue in this arc will have variant covers featuring one new section of a dazzling interlocking image jam drawn by both LEMIRE & NGUYEN!
As much as I like the big moments it's the small moments that clicked the best for me, following what Tesla and TIM-21 are up to as they make their way further down and make some startling discoveries about what may really be going on. I still haven't a clue how long this will actually run but it has the potential for a bit of endgame coming up based on this discovery or it could be at the halfway point, both of which would delight me for different reasons. This series delivers the kind of science fiction that comics rarely does and even more rarely does well. This is an engaging and very fun book and the end of this arc puts us into some new places and even greater danger, which in itself is thrilling and frightening. Read Full Review
Descender #26 attempts to wraps up the "Rise of the Robots" story line, but instead it seems to invite more questions. Rarely has their been a poor Descender issue and this one follows suit. However, I can't shake the feeling that more could have been with this arc and more story beats could have been accomplished. Heck, I'd always take more Driller-centric issues. Read Full Review
What, is no one reading this anymore?! Epic issue! Great finale.
