I've heard so much hype surrounding this.

This book is going to be awesome

I'm pretty excited to pick it up. My new years resolution is to read more books outside of the Big Two, and this seems like it's a good one to continue that with.

Had a similar resolution and now I read more Image then anything

[THALASTDRAGON]

I preordered it. I don't have much experience with Hickman (beyond current Avengers books) or Dragotta's work, but I like the premise.

A post apocalyptic SciFi story by Hickman? Im in!

I knew this series was one to watch out for since it was first announced.

Cool. I'm looking forward to getting the first two issues and then having to wait a full year until issue #3 comes out! Oh, wait, no, I'm thinking of Secret.

Aaww man. I finally get my pull list to an affordable size, then it gets too big again, then I cut it back down again, and stuff like this gets released! I don't how if it's possible to ignore this series

Well I haven't been impressed by Hickman's work in the past, I'm more than willing to give this comic a fair shake. One issue should be enough to tell me if I'll be down for something like this.

Difficult to argue with that comment isn't it?

I am certainly looking forward to this, but Mr. Hickman has a right to be rather shame-faced over the 'Secret' debacle.

What's the reason for these extended delays? Quality control? Creative differences? Boredom?

Folk slag off the 'big 2' energetically, often with good reason, but Image have a poor track record of their own when it comes down to such delays/cancellations & an utter lack of communication.

This book is going to be awesome

^^^^agreed. I love the premise of the book.

[Mr. Holmes]

Getting a Cowboy Bebop vibe from this.

I hear you all too loud and clear. I chop my pull list every few months to get rid of stuff I don't like anymore, and then just end up adding more stuff (like this) that looks and reads better. My wallet is toast!

Does anyone know if this is a limited series or ongoing?
