Inventive, imaginative, dimension-crossing sci-fi. A lot of fun, and beautiful to look-at (the José Villarubia colouring definitely helps). Doesn't really add up to much, and doesn't really deliver on its promise. But it's a fun, exuberant, exhilirating ride — to get nowhere in particular. ( )

This is an example of Jeff Lemire doing what he does best - blending sci-fi, fantasy, time travel, dimension travel, and myth in an intriguing world populated by characters that have depth (he makes me think of the comic version of someone like Blake Crouch). I know his stories and especially his art style are often divisive, but I'm a huge fan of his work. He doesn't always nail the endings, but overall this is a great standalone original graphic novel.

A charming fairytale that has been spun from Lemire's unique imagination. ( )

I love Lemire's illustration style especially applied to this kind of narrative. The story was...okay, I think it lacked something to really bring it home. At the end, Clay remembers something before he is blown up, but I have no idea what it is that he remembers? His "real" story? . That was a confusing detail. ( )
