SECRET WARS SERIES
• Just when you thought Weirdworld couldn't get any weirder... behold, the coming of Skull the Slayer.
• What happens when a fugitive from the concrete jungle is thrust into a world of all things unimaginable?
• It's simple really. He goes utterly insane.
Rated T+
Weirdworld #3 takes the previous two issues and follows suit, tossing you into a world without boundaries. If Aaron can think it and Del Mundo draw it, it seems that nine times out of ten it'll end up on the page. Which makes this book fun. Definitely fun. Read Full Review
The best part is, the main Secret Wars storyline is absolutely unnecessary to understanding Weirdworld, so even those abstaining from the even can enjoy this instant classic. Read Full Review
Did you know that there was a time when I really hated Arkon? I never even read a comic with him in it, but I just hated the character. Well, if Young Me had the chance to go through Weirdworld, I would have a totally different opinion. The comic is tinged with darkness and fatalism while remaining, simply, weird. Also, Arkon here visually fits the world in a way he never could in a "normal" superhero setting, with almost prototypical high-fantasy art that's both evocative and expressive. Read Full Review
A strongly plotted comic with some beautiful art, truly something special! Read Full Review
"Weirdworld" #3 is another fantastic chapter in this series as Jason Aaron and Mike Del Mundo continue to chart out their own map of Weirdworld. With characters like Arkon, Skull, Warbow and Morgan Le Fey passing through these panels, there is no shortage of weird, just more potential to be explored. We've seen two interpretations of Weirdworld through maps so far with this creative crew in place; I'm looking forward to more, and hopefully even more obscure discoveries along the way.

Aaron's writing is okay, the real star here is Del Mundo's art.
