Are these ongoing or limited? Any good? How deep are we for both issues?

I believe Manifest Eternity is a limited series (6 issues) and it has ended. I haven't read it yet but I have all the issues in my pull box at my LCS. The art is beautiful. I am picking them up this week and will let you know as far as story goes.
As for Skye Runner, its 6 issues also and the final one came out last week I think. I bought the 1st issue but I wasn't impressed with the story. Seemed like it was full of rehashed ideas from every other fantasy story. The art is beautiful for this series. Alé Garza is an incredible artist and I still might pick up the tpb for the series just for his art.

I enjoyed Skye Runner. It was a fun action/adventure series with some pretty art and a fairly interesting story. Yeah, it wasn't ground breaking, but it was an enjoyable read regardless. Sadly the art work took a bit of a nose dive about half way through, still not sure exactly why.

Sadly it ended with issue #6 with a very unsatisfying.. "To Be Continued." I'm fairly certain it won't be, so.. meh.

Hrmm..so it was cancelled..? :(

I picked up all 6 Skye Runners anyway. I enjoyed it for what it was. I did really enjoy the art though, but I took a peak at Manifest Eternity's first issue and I must say...

WOW....Dustin Nguyen is seriously one insanely talented artist. What really shocked me was when the comic shop employee told me that that's not even his best work. The coloring also really helps make the book so gorgeous. I would've picked it up, but they only had issues 1-3. I'm just waiting for the eventual trade. (hopefully)

It looks that way. The little blurb about the issue on DC's site says it's the final issue. :( Poor guys, first Ninja Boy got axed with #6 and now Skye Runner. I wonder if they'll ever do a series that makes it to #7?
