It’s a really impressive accomplishment to have four writers on a book and have it feel seamless. Also a very unsettling thing to read during the time of COVID-19.
*I received this book as an eARC from Image Comics via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review*This graphic novel reminds me of Heroes or Sense8. It starts with seemingly disparate stories in different geographical locations, but slowly it is revealed how they are all connected. Because of the global-ness of the story, I enjoyed the internationally diverse cast of characters. The art is cringy, but I think that's exactly what they're going for in their style choice. If you have trypophobia, y...
Done right, this could work very well as a tense TV drama - though unlike too many Image comics a few years back, it never feels solely like the comic is being treated as an easy way to get a pitch document noticed. The science is iffy in the extreme - the idea of evolution having previously been defensive, but now going on the offensive, doesn't even make sense from a lamentably anthropocentric perspective - but considered solely as comic/horror/SF science, the premise is effective enough.

Great idea but overall a bad execution.
Horror comic collection – not particularly uplifting but an interesting ideaThe premise behind this comic collection is that mankind is subject to further evolution and the way this affects the lives of several lead characters. Each, in their own way, discovers something about the “evolved” man and the story shows their progress and character development. Is it alien-influenced?The story moves along at a reasonable pace and the artwork is quite clear and detailed. I enjoyed this although I'm no
I always get a little worried when theres multiple authors attached to a project. Kinda short stories in the beginning and slowly unveils to come together. Has promised even kinda reminded me of a good thriller horror tv show but just too disjointed for me to continue
Review forthcoming on the No Flying No Tights site.
This was okay at first but I think the art really ruined this in the end....
With all of the talent in this creative team I was expecting much more. The book didn't read like the horror comic it was billed as. The three stories being told weren't interesting except for Hannah's. I think the story would have been better served to go slower. The art was too rough at times. Some panels were hard to discern. Overall, not the book for me.
Spooky.
How about no religion and actual science in a sci-fi comic? So silly.
Seriously scary. I picked this book up because the art had this cool 70s horror vibe to it. There are three different stories going on at once, each has a specific color assigned to it. One story is about a scientist, another about a nun and the last is about a couple in a rough patch. Each story gives you small hints about the creature(s) taking over. This book has some seriously cool themes and just a great story all around. Its gory, religious, and seriously scary at times.
There is so much going on in this story meanwhile being grotesque body horror porn.I enjoy the fact that this story is being told 3 different ways across the globe. The question is when will the character's stories meet up, if they even do?The body mutations are enough to make me feel itchy all over my body. While there is a little bit of an explanation as to what this virus is, you will be asking for so much more. As for Abe, what the fuck is he all about? The ending is a bit of a twist!
(Read in single issues) A neat concept and interesting characters, but this was just too slow moving for me month-to-month. Dropped it from my pull list but might check out later volumes to see how it develops.
Great idea, just didn’t quite work for me

Interesting story but wasn't crazy about the visual style - it's an imprecise style of drawing which is stylistic but makes it hard to tell what's happening at times.
It's interesting enough. Ended with a somewhat of a cliffhanger so I'll be following the story.
