The Story for Geiger #21

A German Nazi tank has fallen from the sky. The Northerner isn’t sure why, but continues to put the pieces together and answer Geiger’s questions. As they explore the tank more questions arise than are answered. Despite Geiger seeing a tank from WWII fall out of the sky, filled with very specific items and decor, he still refuses to believe Malcolm North can change the past. He refuses to give into the hope. Not realizing by going along with Mr. North he already has.

As this duo hits a bump in the road, Geiger does what he does best. Yet he’s suddenly faced with a completely different obstacle than he could have anticipated.

The Art

Geiger #21 gifted us with some beautiful and dark historical moments, as well as some gorgeous glowing man action shots. While every issue of Geiger has been filled with amazing action shots, and facial expressions on each character, that perfectly sets the tone for each scenario, issue 21 also snuck in a lot of extra details. Details of Ghost Machine past, and what seems to be the future. Every issue warrants, the stop and smell the roses moment with the art. However, this issue, deserves a bit extra.

Overall Grade: 10/10

The Northerner isn’t new to the world of Ghost Machine, but he is to Geiger, and I’m already loving them together. They come from incredibly different pasts (quite literally), yet their dynamic together makes a ton of sense. Despite also having very different ideas of what is possible, they essentially have the same goal.

Geiger #21 perfectly set up what’s to come. Some bits we knew, and others we didn’t, and I can’t wait to see what pans out. While you should dive into all that Ghost Machine has to offer, you should absolutely pick up Geiger. I have a feeling the Glowing Man’s world is about to get a lot bigger, and a lot more fun.
