Geiger #17

This arc seems to be the one where Johns has Tariq realize just how much his new family has come to mean to him and their importance to his life. Geiger 17 keeps this new storyline rolling with a lot of fun possibilities. Read Full Review

Given the post-nuclear setting of the story, it really feels like some kind of allegory on the nature of human life in a world where everything could end because a couple of people. decided to push a few buttons to end it all with  nuclear death. This isnt an aspect of the modern understanding of potential global holocaust that is often directly addressed in the heroic post-apocalyptic drama. Its a theme thats often buried in other works. Its nice to see Tariq becoming something of an everyman in heroes garb at the end of the world. Its an appelaing graming of something larger-than-life that shadows and echoes the nightmare that rests in the heart of contemporary consciousness. Read Full Review

GEIGER #17 struggles to find its footing after a promising, explosive opening. While the artwork consistently delivers a bleak, compelling wasteland, the narrative frequently bogs down in exposition, leaving the reader waiting for the actual story to unfold. It's a visually strong issue with a wealth of character lore, but it lacks the dynamic plot progression needed to truly shine. Read Full Review

This issue takes a step back and starts to build up where we are going next in the series. Geoff Johns does a great job of setting the table for what should be the next arc in this saga. The pacing is a little slow and not much really happens outside of the building blocks of the next chapter. Dont get me wrong, its great to take a step back to set things up, but this issue was a little slow for my overall liking. Read Full Review

This comic started out great but kinda slowed at the end.It feels like it could have been better.

This is feeling a bit like Walking Dead. In the last issue, they were attacked by bandits. He explodes and is thrown into another area, where he is captured by a mysterious group. Not sure how he remained unhurt by that long fall, but okay, we will let that go. I really love this book and the artwork continues to be amazing.

It wasn't bad. Just wasn't as exciting as other issues. Very straight forward and simple.

Not a lot is happening this issue, plus, the art by Pansica and Rapmund is just okay. Gary Frank is back for an epilogue, but I’m not quite sure what this ending is supposed to be. The stupid zebra is… smoking? All in all, an average, uneven and kinda weird issue.
