I’ve been really digging this current arc so far. It’s been fun getting to know the culture of the Kuthall, but I’m glad that we’re going back to Earth especially since there’s been another time jump. Also, I’m just happy for Nathan that he’s back in his home dimension.
Reaver issue 11

This second arc, The Grim After, has been an improvement from the first arc. I’m not saying that the first arc was bad. The world and plot were really strong, but I didn’t think that the six main characters were given equal development. That’s why I appreciate what Jordan has been doing in this arc by focusing on two of these characters, Breaker and Rekala.
Stealth issue 5

Outer Darkness / Chew Image Comics
Written by John Layman
Art and colors by Afu Chan and Rob Guillroy
It is a damn shame that Outer Darkness was cancelled! It had the perfect balance of sci-fi and horror while not being afraid to crank up either genre to eleven. On top of that, the characters were all spectacular with really cool designs and roles. Afu Chan’s art style nailed the tone of the series perfectly! Overall, this amazing series ended way too soon, and deserves a second chance.
As for this story arc, it was a really fun and meta crossover with co-creator John Layman’s other comic that he did with Rob Guillroy Chew! Despite both series taking place in two entirely different locations, they both mesh together pretty well.
So please, if you like sci-fi, horror, or just a compelling story, I think you should check out this crossover as well as the first two volumes of Outer Darkness!
