review 1: Grant McKay, former member of The Anarchistic Order of Scientists, has finally done the impossible: He has deciphered Black Science and punched through the barriers of reality. His invention, the pillar, allows him and his fellow "Dimensionauts" to leap between worlds at will, taking anything they want for the benefit of their home reality. At least, that was the plan. But when one of Grant's team members sabotages the pillar, causing it to jump to random locations at random times, the group is left stranded between a series of increasingly bizarre and nightmarish worlds, struggling for survival.Rick Remender is certainly on a roll lately. This Image Comics series is a really fun genre deconstruction of 50's and 60's pulp Sci-Fi b-movie and TV shows.
review 2: ... moreThis is a fast-paced take on a common sci-fi idea: that of exploring parallel dimensions, and the consequences of doing so. The art is gorgeous, and I know Rick Remender can be a very good writer at times, but based on the first six issues of this series, I really didn't like ANY of the characters. That, and the fact that this is another one of those stories that throws the word "anarchist" around but when it comes down to it, it's just an egocentric "manarchist" pushing people around to follow his personal agenda. less
