There are times when you start to review a title again and again where
it seems like your words just become repetitive, but let’s make one
thing clear Rossmo has such control over this story that it deserves
repeating. Personally I found this to be a very dark issue in terms of
colors, minus the “vision” scene. There was an emotionally draining
flashback scene done in sepia tones, and I think that helped lead to
just the over all gloomy feeling I got from this issue visually. Another
amazing issue.
Story: 4.5 out of 5
Alright Wiebe it is time to throw down! Each month I read an issue of
Green Wake and each month I am more lost in the mystery than I was when I
started. Honestly this book is blowing my mind, because I just keep
getting hints of the what might be going on before, I am given something
else to try to sit on for another month. There are two main story
building concepts at work here. One is that we are being told the main
story and it’s engaging at every turn. The second thing is that the
entire new realm is being shown to me and in doing so, I need more
answers once this story line is done. So basically this needs to be
ongoing as of right now.
Dying Breath: 4.5 out of 5
Since I read issue #1 of this series I have known one small little
thing, this series is the __________. How’s that for a mystery! See I
can do it too Kurtis and Riley. When all is said and done I have no
doubt I am going to be singing the praises of this first storyline for
years to come. It is nothing short of stunning and it’s very easy to say
it needs to be on your pull list. Go back , get the first 2 issues read
this one and you can join me at the party.
