IMAGE’S SUPERNATURAL SENSATION CONTINUES! Ayane and Nokaido rail against the growing supernatural forces rising up in Tokyo, but are they on the right side of the conflict?
WAYWARD continues to be a great series. This issue is takes the entire series and takes it up a notch. As mentioned earlier, this issue bridged the two arcs and is really expanding the Way-World to new heights. I am heavily invested in the plot and characters and cannot wait for what's to come. I 100% recommend this issue. If you aren't up to date with past WAYWARD issues, the TPB containing issues 1-5 is already out and you can find it at a comic shop near you. If you are in luck, you can still find issue#6. Then you are ready to take in WAYWARD #7 and I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did. Read Full Review

Thrilling and full of surprises Read Full Review
Wayward has yet to slow down with seven excellent back to back issues. This is a story that could go down as one of the best if it keeps this consistency up. Read Full Review
A very solid issue all around that again brings Japanese locales and cultural aspects in a great way to North American readers with a solid blend of Buffy style pieces too. Read Full Review
I also want to give a quick mention to the essay at the end of the comic. Like the other six before it, Wayward features a small writeup about Japanese culture/mythology, but this one about Japan's Obon Festival is particularly compelling and well written. If you've skipped these in the past (for shame), make sure to not skip this one. Read Full Review
Wayward #7 feels like a step back for the series. The concept and ideas it has with its plot and characters are not bad ones at all by any stretch of the imagination and with proper time and development could really elevate the series. The problem though is that the writer just doesn't seem to have much of an interest in exploring the things he's introducing. The story glosses over many important details and progression just in order to get to the next plot point, making the series feel half-baked and underdeveloped. I know people love it, but the writing needs so much more work done on it that I cannot recommend this book at this time. Read Full Review
