HUNDRED WORD HIT #42 - ON THE FAR SIDE WITH DEAD FOLKS #1-6
On The Far Side With Dead Folks by Joe R. Lansdale & Timothy Truman
Frequent collaborators on the Vertigo Jonah Hex series, Lansdale and Truman return at Avatar with a tale that could well have started out as a Hex comic, but that’s no bad thing
Against a backdrop of a virus that brings the dead back to life, a bounty hunter and his quarry encounter a weird cult who worship the scientist who was responsible for the virus and whose base of operations is an abandoned theme park!
Truman’s masterful black and white art is the perfect accompaniment to Lansdale’s tale that’s part western, part zombie apocalypse and part Mad Max. Great stuff.
Rating 8 out of 10.
