the authority Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 One badass dog I've read all 17 issues of this book so far and "The World" one shot was the I didn't care so,far and not because it was terrible, it just like the old Who's Who or Index comics. I never cared for those as a kid and I don't care for them today. They put some info in the book that I felt kind of jumped the gun. Now with that out of the way, let's talk about issue #16. We are back in storytelling mode but the character and world building is done. We know the who, why, where, and when of the apocalypse but the how was never answered until now. Make that the beginning of how. It was nice to see a story with actions and consequences. There was a very intense scene in the book with an outcome that I refuse to spoil. We are back on track and I'm very excited to take a trip with Hickman, Dragotta, and Martin to the very literal end. This book is simply amazing.

Vikingreed Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I always seem to love the animal (I guess robo animal as well, haha) sidekicks. Lying Cat and Red both rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the authority Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) Lets not leave out Chewbacca from Star Wars, Bear from BJ and the Bear, Lockjaw from the Inhumans, Ampersand in Y, Rufferto in Groo, or Krypto.

I dug The World for what is was..I also didn't mind the bit of foreshadowing that they did, but to each their own. I think this issue may move into my top 5 for the series so far. I would have liked to see Death in there a little more, but we had a great scene with the Ranger that has definitely been one of the best sequences in the book.

Rhymenoceros Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 16 was one of my favorite issues thus far. Will be interesting to see how the "alliance" plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
followtheleader Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 It was a great issue. What a pathetic week of comics last week. Seems a little foolish when the majority of the American world is not working and more likely to have time to visit the shop. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuff Ghost Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Read it last night and loved it, really seemed to bring everything into focus. Tons of great action moments. I really want a pet robot dog now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark Resilient Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) Here's a set of EoW Blank covers I commissioned from Matthew Sutton. If anyone has some blank covers they're looking to get drawn on, I would definitely recommend him. He's an awesome dude who puts a lot of thought and effort into his work, and he definitely has some talent to go with it! I was going to wait to post them 'til I had them in hand, but they're on twitter already https://twitter.com/MattSuttonArt https://www.facebook.com/MatthewShowcase?fref=ts Edited January 11, 2015 by Stark Resilient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
