Whatever's happening, I'm going to enjoy the ride with stellar art, great writing, and a plot that could conceivably go anywhere. Read Full Review
Pruitt has created a very eerie yet appealing world here. I am a fan of post-apocalyptic stories, especially when they break the mold of the zombie horde. The artwork here is spot on, as Van Domelen and crew deliver some fantastic visuals, with distinct coloring to go with the world, both pre and post-event. The story feels original and fresh, leaving wanting to know what's next. What exactly is up with Jennifer's family? Does it have something to do with the Midnight Sky? I cannot wait to check out the second issue to dive deeper. Read Full Review
Scout Comics have kind of flown under the radar for a while with an esoteric range of books, here they deliver a slices of, possibly, your favourite invasion type influences, that congregate to deliver a story that if not wholly original, does serve the overall tropes in play well. Read Full Review
Midnight Sky #1 shows tons of promise as it builds it's characters, mystery and world. Its scope is both grounded and epic. It's a book readers should defietly give a chance once it hits their local comic shop in September. So be on the lookout! Read Full Review
Midnight Sky #1 from Scout Comics has a very intriguing story but there may be one too many twists for its own good. Read Full Review
A promising opening. The art is solid and the script generally strong (with one or two shaky bits of dialogue early on). This is well-plotted and is shaping up to be one of the must read of late 2019.
