So it’s a war comic, mixed with an alien comic. All done very fifties… should be fine.
But it’s not.
Morse changes up his format here. Instead of the three panels a page, he includes multiple single panel pages (with the same amount of text as if he was doing the normal format). They slow the pace.
Also different is his use of protagonist. I didn’t even notice he added characters the previous issue because it was all so seamless. Here he’s got a hero (a sort of Captain America guy, without the outfit) fighting the alien invaders. The guy disappears for a while though. Morse opens with him then drops him for the alien invasion. It makes the issue a disjointed read to say the least.
Even the relatively interesting reveal at the end is ineffective.
Good thing Morse didn’t open with this one.
Even Pope’s page is unenthusiastic.
