I found this to be enjoyable, if not slightly formulaic. For me, the highlight was the art, especially Hollingsworth’s coloring. It made all the difference.

I wish more books had “non-standard” coloring, with all the damn gradients and light reflection highlights (think “Earth 2” or “Justice League).

Murphy’s compositions were awesome. Especially, the panel where we quickly flashback to Archer reaching for drowning arms in a storm…and the cut to the crew member with his face bitten off.
