Seven to Eternity #5

It says something about the skill of the creators when the most intriguing part about a story isn't a fight scene, but the characters Read Full Review

Seven to Eternity is what you get when some of the best current comic book creators collaborate together. The story is magnificently woven together and each issue brings new wonders and intrigue. It is compelling and keeps the reader involved, while still having characters that are very well crafted and feel real to the reader while being set in this futuristic fantasy world. The art duo of Opea and Hollingsworth is a dream come true, they collaborate so well with each other and each issue s a treat for the eyes of the reader. If you are not reading Seven to Eternity you definitely should be, buy the first trade and this issue and enjoy one of the best comics out right now. Read Full Review

The best part of this book for my money always comes through in the art. A good story can be meaningless when mangled by a bad artist, but Opena makes a world thats unlike anything else in comics right now. None of the main characters resemble each other. And the distaff designs – even among the Mosak alone – are quite alarmingly diverse, as well as the somewhat apocalyptic tone of the land of Zhal itself. As always, Matt Hollingsworth brings excellent colors to the fore and draws out what is possibly some of Openas best art, since Dean White colored him way back in the beginning of Hickmans Avengers run. That being said: this book is pretty early in its run. However, with art this gorgeous, and a story this compelling, its best to get in early. Youd be doing yourself a disservice otherwise.

"Seven to Eternity" continues its journey with an engrossing first issue to their next arc. Read Full Review

This is a tale of two halves. Rick Remender spends the early pages dealing with the aftermath of the book's first arc, and in typical Remender fashion they're heavy in both dialogue and tone. Read Full Review

I'm sure for some this story is amazing, and I'm not taking anything away from anyone's individual experience, but given the caliber of talent on this title, the story should be epic. The art should be the biggest buzz of the industry, and yet it's not. Because at its core, it's just The Lord of the Rings: Starring The X-Men. At the very least, I didn't hate it while reading it, but I wasn't entertained either. Read Full Review

Into the swamp we go. Another stellar issue!!! Comic Bastards with a 6.5 rating is absurd!! Stick to user ratings and you will never go wrong! The critics are way off a lot of the times! This book is the best!!

This is one of my favorite series of the year and I am glad that it is starting again. The fantastic art and the creation of this weirdly wonderful world makes me glad that the team is consistently evolving. The next issue in the swamp will be a very interesting place in terms of location and story creation.

For a moment the tense mood breaks and there is a bit of levity, but this is very serious, and, sorry, not a whole lot of fun. The quest is striking me as being a bit tedious. I love "Deadly Class" and "Black Science," and I know the positive reviews for this are overwhelming, but this is kind of missing the mark for me. I don't not like it, but I feel like I should be wowed but am not. Worth picking up for the art, but I hope the story itself picks up too.
