Tensions boil over. Things get violent. Can't wait to learn more about the Wheelers... I feel like we're close to finally getting some real answers.

Tensions continue to rise. The fuse is lit, and things seem ready to blow at any moment.

Feels like things are escalating, and I'm here for it.
NEW STORY ARC
Abram Pollux returns to Ghost Town, determined to even the score. But the rules have changed. New alliances are drawn, old friends become new foes, and each step closer to the truth brings Pollux that much closer to hell.
As the Voice's grip on Gotham tightens, Jim Gordon doesn't know whom he can trust. With monstrous beasts threatening the city, he turns to the Bat-Man for help, but to truly stop this reign of terror, playboy millionaire Bruce Wayne will step in to help guide the investigation. It all leads to a heart-pounding conclusion that will literally set Got...
Nic Klein's art is absolutely astounding. I really wish he would do more stuff like this. I have enjoyed his art wherever I've seen it, but it's truly never been better than it is here.
At the end of Arc 2, everything burns.
Cool issue. As always though, we learn a little bit, but are left with more questions.
STORY: IVAN BRANDON
ART / COVER A: NIC KLEIN
Things get ugly.
Oof...this was not good. The art ranged from great (Dragotta and Allred) to really, really bad (whoever did the Western story). This was a completely unnecessary and overly long flashback issue that failed to justify its existence. I had enjoyed the last issue of the main series, but this (as well as the issue where Danny leaves Kun-Lun to study Orson Randall's life) just completely derail the sto more
Orson Randall goes head-to-head again and again versus none other than the endlessly mystifying and unstoppably powerful Prince of Orphans! How will their battle through the ages echo in the life of Danny Rand?
I really liked this one. May have been my favourite issue of this run so far. I thought the writing was a lot sharper, and the story really started to take shape and gain direction, something that I've felt has been missing. The art was great, and I even mostly enjoyed the flashback sequence of Wendell, something that I've personally thought has been bogging down the series up till now.
THE SEVEN CAPITAL CITIES OF HEAVEN continues ever onwards. The kicking intensifies. The mysteries intensify. And the answers Danny Rand has so desperately sought begin coming faster and faster. What if he's been asking the wrong questions all this time? What does Hydra have planned for the mystical city of K'un-Lun? Who is the Prince of Orphans, an...
I know we'll get some answers eventually, so I'm not going to lower my score just because I'm currently confused. I'm enjoying what I'm reading and what I'm looking at. For now, that's enough.
NEW STORY ARC
Stranded on the dark side of Ouro, Abram begins to scavenge the wreckage of his ship, determined to find a way back home. But he's not the only one out here picking over the bones of the past.
NEW STORY ARC! Abram Pollux heads out into the unknown. An expedition to a distant crash site will take him through the unexplored depths of Ouro and towards a key to unlocking his past. IVAN BRANDON and NIC KLEIN return for the start of the second arc of the smash sci-fi hit series.
Each issue it seems like I have more questions by the end. It will be extremely frustrating if they don’t end up answering them to my liking, or at all, but I'm not impatient enough that I'm not willing to wait and give them a chance to satisfy me with whatever resolutions the plot presents. So far, I'm still quite enjoying it, even if I don't have much clue what the heck is going on. Art is sti more
In pursuit of revenge, Abram Pollux finds something that will change everything we know about the world of Ouro. Don't miss the chilling conclusion of the first chapter of IVAN BRANDON and NIC KLEIN's DRIFTER.
"The things I don't know multiplying."
Well if that line doesn't just about sum up my experience with this series so far. I have very little idea what's going on, but now that I'm starting to get used to the writing style and the way the plot jumps around, I'm actually really starting to enjoy this. The quality of this series will obviously totally depend on how the many questions and m more
A killer is loose in Ghost Town and monsters roam the streets. Every step Pollux takes towards the truth brings him closer to the grave.
I really enjoyed this one! Story was a lot easier to follow, and there were some really cool moments. I'm interested to learn more about the Wheelers, but who is the priest and what did he do? Lots of questions and I'm enjoying the slow burn so far. Art is phenomenal as usual.
In his quest for revenge, Abram Pollux heads deep below the surface where he discovers that humans are not the dominant life form on Ouro.
Not as well-written. Art is great, but the narration and story feel somewhat disjointed. Feels like a Rick Remender story but with every second line taken out to make it less coherent.
Abram and the Sheriff explore the sunken ruins of Abram's crashed ship. In search of answers, they find a horde of scavenging raiders and a lightning storm that brings more than just thunder and rain.
I liked this for a start. It was well-written enough, though it doesn’t always flow super well. Seems to jump around a bit, both in narration and the dialogue. You need to be paying attention to not get lost. The real draw here is the art though. Nic Klein's best work by a mile. Why doesn't he do more stuff like this? Unreal work artistically.
A sci-fi western is always gonna get my a more
FROM THE CREATORS OF VIKING: Writer IVAN BRANDON (Wolverine, Men of War) and artist NIC KLEIN (Captain America, Thor) reunite to bring you a sci-fi ONGOING SERIES joining the dark revenge themes of Unforgiven with the mind-bending sci-fi universe-building of Dune. In its frantic rush to survive itself, mankind has spread across the universe, coloni...
THE SEVEN CAPITAL CITIES OF HEAVEN keeps kicking and punching its way toward the brutal finish line. Danny fights for survival --- for the centuries-long legacy of the Iron Fist against the other Immortal Weapons; for his own life, as Davos the Steel Serpent makes his deadly move behind the scenes; and for K'un-Lun itself as the sinister Mr. Xao an...
I don't really have much to say. This was underwhelming. I hate to say it, but it was. I don't like the whole time travel and multiverse direction this series took. It seemed like a grounded, small town horror story at first, and I was really, really vibing with it. Unfortunately, it sorta went off the rails, got pretty convoluted, and never really capitalized on the potential of its characters. G more
SERIES FINALE
"THE END"-The mind-bending conclusion to the Eisner Award-winning series by New York Times bestselling writer JEFF LEMIRE and artist ANDREA SORRENTINO (the creative team behind Green Arrow and Old Man Logan), with the talents of Eisner Award-winning colorist DAVE STEWART!
An oversized (80 page...
This feels like it's turned into a confusing zombie story.
END OF STORY ARC
"WICKED WORLDS," Part Five
ARC FINALE! As the Gideon Falls multiverse is beset by even greater peril, Molly and Fred meet a familiar face with a malevolent new expression.
Better, but I can't shake the feeling like we're going in narrative circles. How many more times do we need to "gather the ploughmen"?
"WICKED WORLDS," Part Four The Bishop will finally reveal the secrets of the Multiverse to Angela...IF she can survive long enough to hear them!
What is going on...? I'm all for slow burn mysteries where key plot information is held back for a time and secrets are slowly unraveled...but this just seems like Lemire doesn't know what to do next... It's one thing to string readers along when they can make educated guesses as to where the story will go next. It's another thing entirely to give them no clue whatsoever what is happening for seve more
2019 EISNER AWARD WINNER, BEST NEW SERIES
"WICKED WORLDS," Part Three
Sheriff Clara is trapped in "western" Gideon Falls. She's holding her own with a six-gun, but a six-gun isn't much help against a tidal wave of killer bugs!
One of the dumbest and most unnecessary annuals I've read in recent memory. I knew it was gonna be a doozy from the very first page and second panel when Danny said: "The resources absurd wealth provides are AS MUCH a part of what makes me the Iron Fist as ANYTHING ELSE" (Emphasis mine). I mean....are you kidding me...? So, according to Fraction and Brubaker, Danny being loaded is an EQUALLY essen more
Danny Rand, the current Iron Fist, must track down the secret history of his Golden Age counterpart before time runs out!
I hope Lemire has a plan here...I'm still somewhat enjoying this but the plot seems to be slowly meandering towards nothing. If we don't get any clear direction soon, I don't have much hope that Lemire will be able to pull off an overly satisfying conclusion.
2019 EISNER AWARD WINNER, BEST NEW SERIES!
"WICKED WORLDS," Part Two-Father Fred finds himself trapped in a cyberpunk Gideon Falls, and he's going to need the help of some locals to find his way out.
I liked this one better than the last couple. Even though I'm still not really sure where this story is headed, I felt like this issue was easier to understand and was better written.
The Seven Capital Cities of Heaven, Part 3
The kung fu tournament to end all tournaments continues in this, the third part of THE SEVEN CAPITAL CITIES OF HEAVEN. Davos and Crane Mother's conspiracy to crush K'un-Lun and the Iron Fist legacy once and for all springs to life. The Heroes for Hire continue tracking the rogue Hydra cell across the...
