    Detective Ari Nassar's journey to catch the One Hand Killer ends in a fantastic issue that brings answers while opening up more questions. Don't be surprised if it will take a few rereads to piece together the story's big picture. Read Full Review

    The One Hand's conclusion left me in awe. I'm going to be thinking about this one for a while. It was almost frustrating for a good portion of this issue as I was ready to scream at Johannes myself to tell me what was going on. It turned out to be a slow burn, and in the end I still needed a moment to process. It ended up being a great part of a fantastic whole. The artwork will inspire works to come. I'll comeback at some point and reminisce at how wonderful it was. Read Full Review

    Waiting to just read the last issue of Six Fingers, but this series is amazing all the way through. I don’t think many will see the ending coming, and as Ram V does there are the big philosophical questions he weaves into his work and his characters and stories like no other writer does at the moment. Probably my favorite book of the year along with six fingers, maybe right behind Beneath the Trees, but not far.

    I think this is going to warrant a reread. I thought it did come with a nice twist, and it did set up for the Six Fingers to put a nice cap on the overall story. I do think this issue made it more layered, and so I feel like reading both series again,in one shot,will be a necessity.
