 Prophet #26 (2012) $9.00 Quantity
VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Brandon Graham (A) Simon Roy (CA) Farel Dalrymple Jaxson must find a way to warn John Prophet of the newly awakened Earth Empire. Date Available: 06/27/2012 BONUS REVIEW by Gary Owens  By Brandon Graham...This is what I know about Brandon: Nominated for an Eisner for Best Short Story, "The Speaker", and he wrote and drew this comic. What I like about this comic: the freshness. It's a Sci-Fi comic, but the imagination of the worlds are extraordinary (parts remind me off "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind"), the loneliness is palatable, and the nuances (such as worms investing long unused technology) are strange and frightening. I also took a chance, dropping in on the middle of a comic book series, but this issue seemed right to do that. The art works here, too, very detailed when it needs it, yet fleshing out the vast distances in space so you feel it, not just see it. What I don't like: too short. I wanted more! What was the war that happened, and what's returning? Anyway, for Sci-Fi fans who enjoy calm suspense, like 2001, this issue is a good buy. 9 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
