The artwork in this chapter is stylistically traditional. There is a newsprint feel to the panels that I found visually engaging. And I appreciate how the color work heightens the intensity of the varying scenes. Read Full Review

'What's the Furthest Place From Here?' is another creative tour de force from two comic book auteurs in Rosenberg and Boss. Anything can happen in this story of rival gangs, a missing girl, and the mysterious figures who make the rules. It's not often when you open a comic and don't know where it's headed. Readers are at the mercy of its creators and it's freakin' awesome. Read Full Review
Continues the momentum, world building, and characterization of the first issue very well.
WHAT'S THE FURTHEST PLACE FROM HERE?'s greatest strengths lie in it's ability to use shorthand for it's world's social contract. It doesn't bug us with useless exposition or unnecessary details we've heard a million times before at this point. Almost like a video game, Rosenberg and team tell their story through character moments, artwork, and dialogue.
The whole thing is a vibe.
What I said about last issue applies here as well. It's just really well done.
I'm still a bit hazy as to the specifics of the setting, but I don't mind because that seems to be on purpose.
