World Reader #1 (Aftershock)



World Reader #1 (Aftershock)

Jeff Loveness (w) Juan Doe (a)

Aftershock are a new entrant to the comics field and are bringing out a range of titles including the excellent Animosity set in a world where all the animals develop intelligence. It's worth keeping an eye out for their other publications as this one World Reader is also worth picking up.

This review is a wee bit late as my copy arrived in a damaged shipment and had to be (along with a number of other titles) be replaced. No matter as it was worth the wait and issue #2 arrived at the same time.

This is the story of a spaceship discovering that mankind was once not alone, but every civilisation they come across is no more. Something is killing life and the resident psychic is not taken seriously by the captain so Sarah takes matters into her own hands. Talking to ghosts can be dangerous.

Who is the faded man? Will Earth face the same fate? And why?

Issues #1 & #2 are on sale now.
