Mini-Series Finale. Our heroes grapple with their wins and their losses. Nothing will ever be the same again. But is it ever? There's no place like home, that's for sure!
A thrilling conclusion to the blockbuster series. Equal parts satisfying and devastating as we end of a mind-bending cliffhanger. Thompson and Iulis have been a dynamite pairing and I hope to see them re-teamed for more storytelling in the future. Read Full Review
The Cull #5 ends its story with big blockbuster action, great moments of heroism, and a whopper of a cliffhanger. This series has everything you'd want in a hit TV show or movie, executed as well as shows like Lost or any summer tentpole picture. Read Full Review
De Iulis delivers some amazing art in the issue. I love the visual style of this series and the art is visually breathtaking. Read Full Review
This ending feels rushed but it still packs something of a decent punch. Read Full Review
The ending was OK as far as fantasy/sci-fi/horror stories go. This one couldn't bring it all together but the ending made me hopeful and intrigued in the future. I didn't see that angle coming so kudos to Kelly Thompson for that and her new ideas. She took some swings and hit some and missed some like the giant organic Voltron being saying dumb things like M-fer just took me out of it. Why is that even there? Weird choice. Also these characters need some separate opinions about choices in these stories otherwise what is done to show unison/compassion/empathy within the group feels hollow. But I see how 5 issues might not be enough to do the job. Mattia de Lulis deserves an Eisner for this art. So good in so many ways. I hope he wins. Sign mmore
Started off interesting, the art is still great.
I am not feeling any particular way to where this story went. It lost some of its spark.
It was a lot of "action". Also had some cheesy moments where in cliche fashion the group gathers to do something they couldn't do alone. I really did like the visuals of the issue and was really interested in the ending. Not sure if that will ever be followed up on.
The first issue of this mini really drew me in with the promise of a Stranger Things meets Annihilation meets Cloverfield sci-fi horror story, but by the end of this week's finale issue I was left with a feeling of an unfulfilled promise. 5 issues IS NOT a lot of time to tell a story and I give Kelly Thompson a lot of credit for introducing some really fascinating concepts within this short frame of time, I just wish she had more space to flesh some of these ideas out and give them space to breath. I feel like we never really got a chance to live with this new world the main characters discovered or time to see how their new powers not only impacted their individual character developments, but the group dynamic as whole.
