Let’s Share Some Thoughts:
From the get go the cover alone is a thing to marvel at. The bright shades of blue and splashes of blood against the soft color tones continue the tradition of this story being a gruesome one.
Within the pages Thiago and Fico take a bit of a softer tone to this story. Previous issues met the audience with bloody and violent fight scenes whereas this issue allows our fast-paced story to breathe a bit. There are still some great fighting in this issue but, it is done against a background of a burning sunset and crystal blue water. I loved the change of pace as far as the artwork went. The characters still brought the same tenacity and emotions as this is a highly emotionally charged story that seeps from the facial features.
Meanwhile, Zack continues to craft a compelling story woven with threads and a “who do I believe” mentality. He allows this story to breathe and focus on a crisis of faith. Does Frey stick by her families side, her morals, or the man she has until now defended. He does a solid job of creating three different sides in this story which add even more depth.
So How Do I Feel Overall?:
Kill All Immortals #4 takes an emotional step back to allow its audience to take a breath before cranking up the action in more heart-pounding ways. Frey continues to cement herself as a bad ass and the audience is left with a cliff hanger questioning everything we have learned to this point.
Another 10/10 by Dark Horse and this outstanding team!
