"UNITY," Part Three
The expedition moves further into UNITY, and discovers more of the secrets of this techno-futuristic paradise version of America.
HOLLYWOOD NEWS! Acquired by New Republic Pictures after a competitive bidding war for potential franchise development. SNYDER and SOULE are attached to adapt the screenplay and serve as executive producers alongside CAMUNCOLI. John Hilary Shepherd will oversee development for New Republic.
This arc already has a wildly different feel than the Destiny storyline and shows the versatility of Undiscovered Country and how limitless this series can truly be. Read Full Review
Giuseppe Camuncoli and Leonardo Marcello Grassi deliver some inspired visuals in this issue. The story is more character focused so there are great depictions of the characters themselves and the backgrounds are just as interesting. Read Full Review
The whole trip to Unity is an interesting commentary on technological development, and I'm not exactly sure where Snyder and Soule stand on the matter " which is totally fine by me. Read Full Review
Undiscovered Country #9 continues to take us on an adventure much like Alice in Wonderland. We're presented a wondrous world full of possibilities but underneath that wonder is horror. But, what's most impressive is the series continues to hold a mirror to our reality. It may be a funhouse mirror but it's still a twisted reflection of the world we live in.
