“The new heart-stopping ongoing from BOOM! continues! Great
Britain is quarantined. The Infected overrun the land. What the world
doesn’t know is that uninfected people are still trapped inside. They
live, although in no way resembling their former lives. When Selena,
Clint and Derrick find these lost souls, the question is posed: What do
these people do when they run into strangers?“
Artwork: 4.0 out of 5
Oh look, another solid issue by Declan Shalvey. There is really not
much to say in regards to this issue. Great solid characters that hold
up through out the issue. Another set of great covers and some solid
coloring. It was a nice muted tone to this issue that played well with
the building story arc.
Story: 4.0 out of 5
Like I mentioned with the art, this was a bit of a slow down issue.
Starting off with the predicament from the end of issue #6, I liked how
that was handled here. I felt there was some great character building
here, as we get to know our protagonists more, as well as the shock
that people were still around. So while some may find it be a slow down
from previous issues, I highly enjoyed it, because you know that
something is coming.
Dying Breath: 4.0 out of 5
Another great issue of this series, as it is becoming one of my
favorites. I hope when all is said and done we can get a movie made to
bridge the gap, based off of this series. The artwork really carries
the tone of the story well and your left with a sense that there is
some bad mojo about to be let loose. Great work from this great team.
