Wayward #9 arrived this week and momentum is building for the big finish to our second story arc. Let’s see what reviewers thought of it.
• All-Comic: 8/10 “This comic continues to be a breath of fresh air in Image’s line-up. It can honestly be said that there isn’t an American comic like it. It’s educational, entertaining, emotional and gorgeous.”
• Big Glasgow Comic Page: 5/5 “Once again, Wayward managed to go past my expectations – which are pretty high with this series.”
• Comic Attack: 8/10 “Wayward is the series you should be reading for that supernatural, fantasy escape with panel after panel of great artwork.”
• Comic Book Bin: 10/10 “What more can I say about the comic book that should have received a ‘Best New Series’ Eisner nomination?”
• Comics the Gathering: 9/10 “Zub, Cummings, Bonvillain, Dillon are producing top of the line work and Zack Davisson’s excellent essays continue to provide education and interesting topics related to the comic.”
• Fandom Post: B+ “Wayward’s moving in some interesting directions here and we’re seeing the cast take shape in new ways due to all the pressures being applied to them.”
• Geeked Out Nation: 8.3/10 “Solid issue showing us what happens when youth, disaster, power, and responsibility create a dangerous combo.”
• Omnijerbear: “It’s really fantastic. Each issue blows me away.”
• Paradox Comics Group: 8/10 “Wayward continues to impress and should be on your radars by now.”
• Reading With a Flight Ring: “It’s no wonder that for me this is a top tier book that’s been in my top ten list every month it’s been out. This is an amazingly special book that wraps you into a world you dare to only dream exists.”
• Snap Pow: 9/10 “there’s no room for doubt because month in and month out Image Comics continues to have a winner on their plate.”
• Telltale Mind: 8/10 “Great story and fantastic artwork equals another win for Zub and company.”
• TM Stash: 10/10 “Zub’s scripts continue to be outstanding, mixed with the beautiful illustrations of Steve Cummings and colors of Tamra Bonvillain.”
• Under the Comic Covers: “I can never say enough about Steve Cummings’ artwork. Just so damn stunning.”
• We the Nerdy: 9/10 “This is how you do a build-up comic. You make me love the characters more, and then you make me worried that they’re all walking into danger.”
I grabbed Wayward #2–7 at a Comixology sale today. Catching up!
