NEW STORY ARC
ERIC STEPHENSON, JORDIE BELLAIRE, and FONOGRAFIKS welcome new artists DAVE TAYLOR and EMI LENOX as the Eisner-nominated series returns with the first of six all-new issues. Featuring thirty-two pages of story and no ads for $2.99, the second story arc picks up right where the volume one trade paperback left off and will ship monthly through May 2016.
Overall, Nowhere Men #7 is a good continuation of the previous story and a strong beginning to the new one. Read Full Review
The story itself is still very enthralling and I'm looking forward to where it goes. Bellegarde or no, I'm ready for more Nowhere Men. Read Full Review
Nowhere Men is a very complex series. For ongoing and new readers, jumping into this arc might be a bit challenging and therefore a return to the first arc is likely necessary to keep all of the pieces straight. That said, issue #7 is a welcome return and feels as strong as the issues before it. Read Full Review
All in all, “Nowhere Men” #7 is a fine return. It mostly deals with catching us up on what happened in the first arc, but Stephenson does well in grounding the characters and posing more questions. Dave Taylor's artwork serves it's purpose, but it's not until near the end where he starts to make it his own. It remains to be seen if Emi Lenox's prologue is probably the most effective piece, and if the world continues to expand, a wide plethora of styles could help. Read Full Review

I really do miss Nate Bellegarde on this book, but I think that Dave Taylor does a great job with this issue. Emi Lenox, who I am assuming did the art for the “webcomic”-looking prologue was a neat change of pace for this story, and one that definitely threw me for a loop jumping back into this book. I am not sure how many people are still keenly aware of this book, because it has been quite a while since issue six of this book came out. Not to bore you with too much backstory, or to try and tell story out of school- but it seemed like Nate Bellegarde was having some personal problems, which were interfering with him being able to complete his work because he was getting in his own way, mentally. It was sad to see him not coming back to more
