Solicitation and Preview

Review
There are some stories that are made for big budget movies. And this story could be one, but it wouldn't fit just right.

This story belongs in a comic book.

There is still the air of mystery around everything in this book, but a lot does get revealed in this issue. I can say for sure that even after a second read through that I am still filled with the desire to read more and re-read everything that came before. Somehow I think I will be forced to re-read it again when the final issue comes out.

That last sentence was not a complaint, but a statement of glorious anticipation.

Everything about this comic, from the story to the art, just shines. And I just heard that IDW will be doing an X-Files series with the art team from this book carrying over to that one. Yea, I'll be picking up that title as well.

Time traveling stories can sometimes be a mess to handle. What type of "rules" of the genre will you follow? Well, this story seems to be able to create it's own rules, and the end of the comic giving you a glimpse of a "reset" is something that I can't wait to see how it is resolved.

To say much more would be too revealing. Let's just say that this is a book that I highly recommend to anyone who loves comics.
