This issue was a little harder to follow cause of the time jumps back and forth, but it certainly wasn't as bad as most people apparently think it is.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #8
Tensions come to a head between the Harvesters and the Worshippers at Malik's Flight as Marlyn Chen's true plan is revealed.
Meanwhile, Jason will find himself embroiled in a conspiracy and heist that makes Captain Malik's original quest pale in comparison.
Really good issue. We get the gaps in Jason's timeline filled in and a delicious tease for that's coming next. No idea what Geller's plan entails, but it's hard to care about a lack of information when a comic is as well-written and gorgeously illustrated as this.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #7
* Marlyn Chen, Ambassador for the Inner Worlds, arrives at Malik's Flight to broker peace between the Harvesters and the Worshippers.
* When Jason Hauer, one of the fated Vihaan II crew, is pulled into these talks, he will soon discover that like all politics, nothing is as it seems...
They really shifted gears with this new arc, but I really liked it. Didn't know what to make of most of this issue, but then the last few pages really sold me. No idea where it's going to go from here, but I'm down for it.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #6
Fifty years have passed since Captain Malik and the crew of the Vihaan II embarked on their fateful mission-and the universe has changed in ways no one ever expected.
Jason Hauer, one of the fated Vihaan II crew, is now 71 years old and living a life on the razor's edge between the Harvesters and the Worshippers. But as these rivalreligious fa...
Dafuq did I just read? That was freaking incredible. Mind-blowingly good stuff. Holy smokes.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #5
* Destiny has come for the endeavors of the Vihaan II.
* Malik and Richter face off for the last time and only one will survive.
* Their uncertain futures will be forever changed by a shattering discovery.
* Please Note: The Spoiler Variant will be bagged to protect the shocking ending of this issue!
Another really, really good issue. I love how raw the bad blood between Richter and Malik is and we can sense it despite not knowing exactly what happened between them, though we do get some big clues in this issue. Art continues to be astounding and writing is really sharp.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #4
* The final showdown between Malik and Richter has begun on the surface of the God they've discovered.
* But will Malik survive long enough to find a living God - or has he doomed his crew to an unimaginable fate?
This was incredible. The tension was palpable on every page, and the art and writing were both on point.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #3
* Captain Malik and the crew of the Vihaan II are trapped in warp space, as they're pursued by the mysterious government agent Richter.
* They have two choices - drop out of warp speed and risk being destroyed by Richter or stay in warp until their engines explode from overheating.
* Who will survive long enough to discover a living God?
I'm really really enjoying the writing and art. The story is compelling and I love how we're getting little bits of the backstory in each issue. Keeps things interesting as the history is slowly revealed.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #2
Captain Malik and the crew of the Vihaan II escape from their tyrannical government - and chart a course straight to the first living god they can find! But the only thing more dangerous than what lies ahead of them...is who follows behind them.

Really enjoyed this opener. Really cool premise, terrific art, and an interesting little cast of characters. Ewing excels at writing sci-fi, so this is a perfect story for him.
We Only Find Them When They're Dead #1
* For fans of Decorum and Something is Killing the Children comes a new sci-fi epic from Al Ewing (Immortal Hulk) and Simone Di Meo (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) on the edge of space where humanity is harvesting the corpses of giant alien gods to survive.
* No one has ever seen a living god, but Captain Malik is obsessed with being the first....
This ending was okay. An absolute visual feast, my goodness, but didn't hit as hard as it should've. I didn't feel like I was made to care enough about any of the characters to make this ending as impactful as I'm sure it was intended to be. Still a shame that the Bone Orchard Mythos won't be continuing, because the three stories that Lemire and Sorrentino put out were promising groundwork for wha more

The Bone Orchard Mythos: Tenement #8

Man, this issue really makes me sad that the Bone Orchard Mythos is never going to be finished. We finally get some answers here as to how all of the different installments of this series fit together and what the overarching narrative is, and it's actually really compelling. I understand Lemire and Sorrentino's reasons for ditching it, but god is it ever disappointing now.
The Bone Orchard Mythos: Tenement #7
REVELATIONS!
The secrets of the Bone Orchard finally revealed in this critical chapter that fans have been waiting for!
I really liked Ant-Man in this one. I know nothing about Eric O'Grady so it was cool to allow him to have a moment in the spotlight.
