"TRASHED!" Part Four
Settling the Great Pacific Garbage Patch has led Chas Worthington down an insanely dangerous path. But when the lovely and mysterious French aviator, Zoe crashes onto his island nation, things only get worse. Meanwhile, the corporation and the government Chas fled conspire to drag his fugitive hide back to Texas!
All that aside, Martin Morazzo really hits his stride and the art is looking better than ever. The piles of trash on New Texas sometimes look like a alien landscape, other times you can pick out soda cans, wires, trash bags, aluminum siding and other refuse that the ocean can pick up. The art team brings the continent of New Texas to life, slimey, filthy life. Huge thanks to all involved! Read Full Review
I went back and forth on what to score this issue, but after flipping through it again I settled on a higher score. It’s an interesting series and I worry that at any moment it could become utterly ridiculous and loose me as a reader, but then it could also take a turn for the amazing and for lack of better words… blow me out of the water. Right now though, this is a strong monthly title that I will continue to read and enjoy as long as this level of quality is maintained. Read Full Review
Great Pacific continues to feel a bit all over the map for me and that's proving to be a real frustration with what it is that it wants to do. It started off strong but needed that kind of grand moment to cement the viability of it all, even if just for the reader. I know Zoe and the sea monster, a great band name to be sure, will have their importance in the run overall with what story Harris wants to tell here, but it feels so disconnected and like a distraction that it keeps making me waver in my enjoyment of the book overall. I keep getting interested and intrigued by what's being circled here, but the early necessary payoff to invest in the series just isn't there yet. Read Full Review
This is one of the new series from Image that I look forward to every month because it is so completely different from anything out in the comic market. Writer Joe Harris plucks a spoiled, naive, overly wealthy heir to a multi-billion dollar company and gives him a cause to care about. This character, whose motives seem selfless, is actually quite selfish and it is interesting to see him progressively get a taste of reality as he discovers that his original plans won't be so easy. Additionally, Martin Morazzo does a fantastic job on the art in this issue, once again. He is incredibly consistent and his work here is really lovely. Read Full Review
I know Ive said it before but I am becoming more and more convinced that this would make for a really entertaining television series. The pacing is solid, plot twists come fast and furiously, and the the muted color scheme keeps the visuals constantly engaging. Read Full Review
Great Pacific persists at drifting in the awkward area where it's interesting enough to continue reading, but still failing to achieve it's potential. It's positive elements are such that I can understand people who like more than I do. Read Full Review
