The Orville: Heroes #2

David A. Goodman finishes off his story in a satisfying, but sad way. While it is satisfying to see the planet liberated and freed from the Nazh. It was sad that one character had to lose so much including their innocence in order to take over the job of saving her planet from Talla. Read Full Review

The Orville Issue: 4 “Heroes, Part: 2” Publisher: Dark Horse Comics @darkhorsecomics Writer: David A. Goodman @davidagoodman1 Artist: David Cabeza @kashinorei Colors: Michael Atiyeh @matiyehcolors Letters: Richard Starkings @elephantmen2261 & Jimmy Betancourt Talla returns to Okudum disguised as the folklore hero, Xandia, to liberate the enslaved population from the Nazh. Her enhanced strength and armorment from Lamar give her the edge needed to gain the Nazh’s full attention. Realizing Xandia’s connection to Talla’s friend Aki, the Nazh murder her family to lure Talla into a trap. As Talla is moments away from public execution, Aki appears, donned as Xandia, and murders Talla’s captures, delivering a harsh warning t o the remaining Nazh! Talla returns to the Orville overcome by guilt over how her actions have forever altered Aki’s life. I appreciate the writing in this series. It would have been so obvious to reach a happy ending for all. This book went in the opposite direction. Aki’s loss of family and innocence are a direct result of Talla’s noble but ultimately reckless actions. I know I preach this in every review, but I just can’t get over how perfectly David Cabeza can draw each character. This book has been a lot of fun for me while I eagerly await the series return to Hulu.
