    Issue number three continues the story seamlessly. Christopher Cantwell does an immaculate job of building the characters up, while turning up the heat of the story. As some mysteries reveal themselves, others are just peaking through. The depth of the characters mixed with making the world in many shades of gray, really makes this story stand out.

    This is a gripping story about people trapped by circumstance, identity, and past choices. Out of Alcatraz continues to prove how powerful and resonant historical fiction in comics can be. When the solicitation reads "must-read series of 2025," it's not hyperbole; it's a fact.  Read Full Review

    This is an engrossing story about how there are no happy endings when you start out in an unhappy one. Out of Alcatraz #3 deepens its gripping tale of fugitives, secrets, and survival with a tension-filled script and masterful art by Tyler Crook. The stakes are rising fast, both emotionally and physically, as the story veers toward inevitable tragedy. With haunting character work and lush visuals, this series continues to prove that historical fiction in comics can be just as emotionally resonant as it is suspenseful. Read Full Review
