Outcastes #8


I’ve been a bit lax with updating the blog the last couple of weeks but rest assured I haven’t gone away, I am just way busy with one thing and another. While I don’t have time for a more thorough review, I didn’t want to miss giving Outcastes #8 a plug.

I’ve written about
Outcastes here a number of times in the past and if you’ve read them then you’ll know that I have no hesitation in recommending the latest issue. Things really kick off in issue 8 with the various strands starting to come together. This series has been great from the outset with a good story, rounded characters and some stunning artwork, very fluid in style. The story doesn’t give easy explanations and requires a bit of thought on behalf of the reader. That’s not to say it’s a difficult read or anything, far from it but it is what I would call an intelligent read. All in all it is building into something special. Price-wise it is very good value for money and Tony McGee is a creator that deserves our support.
