MINISERIES FINALE
The tragedy. The truth. The great secret, revealed at last. And a painful lesson:
Sometimes you can't complete a journey without turning to see how far you've come.
Step By Bloody Step refuses to serve up cliched pablum or comforting answers, but instead chooses to confront its essential question directly with eyes wide open. How do we persist in this world? Words cannot suffice, but our actions might. Read Full Review
Step By Bloody Step #4 is a flawless conclusion to one of the most astounding comics in recent memory. Si Spurrier, Matas Bergara and Matheus Lopes have created something that can and should be experienced by any fan of the medium. This is sequential art at its best. Read Full Review
Bergara delivers some truly mind blowing visuals throughout the issue. The art brilliantly conveys every emotion the character is feeling and evokes those emotions in the reader. Read Full Review
Artist Matias Bergara again shines in the conclusion of this textless tale of a young girl and her giant protector. His artwork forces readers to concentrate on each panel and we are richer for doing so. Read Full Review
STEP BY BLOODY STEPis something you'll have to see to believe. While much of the series dealt with simple concepts, this issue managed to get complicated without skipping a beat. Read Full Review
There are really no words to describe how good this comic is (See what I did there?), but I'll do my best anyway. This was truly one of the best books I've ever read (Is it still reading if it has no words? Food for thought). The art was absolutely stunning in every single panel. Bergera absolutely knocked it out of the park and produced a visual feast on every page. And what a powerful, poignant story Spurrier crafted here. A story about time, family, life, and love. Beautiful. Simply beautiful. I will 100% be returning to this book again in the future, and again and again and again. It was moving, it was exciting, it was thought-provoking...it was as close to perfect as a comic book gets. Bravo.
This was great. Not much needs to be said. Read it.
This was just a superb read all around. Spurrier and Bergara's ability to deliver a clear, concise story without words is remarkable and it really makes this comic unique. I think this last issue might have been the weakest by a hair, but it didn't sully the journey at all for me. Ironically that seems to be one of the points Spurrier was trying to make: to appreciate the journey for what it is and, most importantly, to appreciate those around you. I really can't recommend this one enough, just a beautiful book.
