The first issue introduced readers to Artisan, Beacon, Hazard, and Tank. They were a group of amnesiacs locked up in an otherworldly prison. Just as they were able to make their escape from the prison, the group suddenly discovers they are nowhere near Earth.
4) The Writing!
Writer Fred Van Lente does a great job giving the characters an individual spotlight. Each character gets a chance to define their own personality. The lettering by Dave Sharpe bolds the names of the character in the dialogue balloons. This makes it easier for readers to understand who’s talking in the wide shots.
3) The Artwork!
Artist Renato Guedes does a great job illustrating the alien species in the issue. The designs of the extraterrestrials look familiar, yet odd at the same time. The faces of the aliens resemble something recognizable of a cat or an octopus.
2) The Colors!
Artisan, Beacon, Hazard, and Tank have their own specific color tied to their suit and superpower. When Hazard strikes out in action, her entire body is outlined by a red shade. Notice how the red tones pop out in the design of her costume.
1) A Fun Read!
