It's great to see that the people at Valiant taking risks with Generation Zero #6, as the natural response is to keep doing the same thing. I'm not surprised, however, because the standard they have set is pretty high-quality. We just keep getting the same great quality storytelling and the same solid art since we got in issue #1. Generation Zero is on track to go down in history as something truly special. Read Full Review
Fred Van Lente is building to something fantastic here, and we're starting to see glimpses of it now. In a series where a slow burn hasn't always been welcome, we start to see some pay off with the sixth issue. Read Full Review
The big plot of Rook may be a bit derivative, but this book lives and breathes in the character beats Van Lente, Bernard and Pulido provide. Read Full Review
I feel like I can't say much negative about this issue, but at the same time I felt like we didn't really get much from it. Even though it's touted as a new arc it never really felt like there was an end to what we previously had. It does end up having a few positive moments I really enjoyed though. I was just let down that we have to wait until the next issue for what I was hoping to get to in this issue, but instead of getting something meaningful out of it, it's mostly just rehash and rundown of the events so far.

This issue was a bit of a drop off for me, but it is still a great series and I'm sure it will pick up. I just think the first storyline is dragging on too long. And I don't see how this is the start of a new arc...anyone picking this up as a jump-on point will be clueless as to what's happening.
