God Country #1 (2017) third print

This book might as well have been laid out by the 'Image Comic Maker Template' society. It's violent, partially based in the real world (I'm looking at you Green Valley), slightly blasphemous, and pretty entertaining. If you're game for dealing with an Alzheimers story with demons, or a demonic story with Alzheimers, Donny Cates and Geoff Shaw have the book for you. I particularly liked Shaw's art- a nice mix of cartooning and Sienkiewicz facial work. I particularly did not like the coloring by Jason Wordie. Splotchy, dark, unclear, and unclean, it does nothing to define the artwork, set the mood, or drive the narrative. It felt out of place at almost every turn, and that's just not what you want to hear for a story set in Texas. (See 'Preacher' for how to color Texas for dummies.)
