Story by Robert Kirkman & Nick Spencer
Art by Shawn Martinbrough

Size: 0 pages
Price: 2.99

I get nervous when I see multiple creators who I like combine their forces to put out a book. The urge to set unrealistic expectations shivers at my every vertebra, and those standing within fifty yards of me.

I thought this issue was flawless. I love the pacing, the dialog, the art, the storyarc, the potential for future twists. Spencer and Martinbrough have done a fabulous job of bringing Kirkman’s story to life here. My store got shorted all our copies of Saga, so I can’t really say it’s my PotW, but it’s certainly in contention.

This, like the current issue of Haunt, is a true testament to how really talented creators can take a concept that doesn’t even mildly intrigue me on the surface, and turn it into a five star book.

It says a lot that Martinbrough can start a page one with the same three panels and make it work. Can’t wait for the next issue.

Story: 5 - Excellent
Art: 5 - Excellent
