    "We Only Find Them When They’re Dead" (2020) by Al Ewing and Simone Di Meo (BOOM! Studios)

    I first took notice of this book after it was nominated for two Eisners back in 2021 ("Best New Series" and "Best Cover Artist"). I was somewhat cautious with this series because I seem to be one of the few people that didn't particularly care for Ewing's "Immortal Hulk" run. The art was very appealing. I read the first volume through Comixology Unlimited. It was a fast, enjoyable, and engaging read. When I set it down, I felt I had read something special. Ewing's use of time and flashbacks (specifically in issue #4) was very poignant. If you liked this book, you would probably enjoy Rick Remender and Greg Tocchini's "Low" (Image).
