This was just weird.
Side note, good idea to have the Google translate app up and ready on your phone so you can use the camera scan button on the Russian parts. Not totally necessary but definitely adds to it.

Deep-sea horror with an action film ending. Not bad, and Stuart Immonen still draws some unsettling visuals.

This was so stupid and boring. What was the ending? The worst one in the series.

Plunge was a good mix of family relationships and very creepy horror/science fiction. It reminded me a lot of Aliens and the like, and this was a good thing.

Joe Hill tries to do John Carpenter by cramming a ton of science talk and too many characters into a six issue comic. The weakest of the Hill House comics, I'd say skip this.

Plunge had a 80's horror film kind of feel. Awesome art and a great story by Joe Hill. The story has a Lovecraft feeling that matched the art and writing perfectly. I don't read a lot of graphic novels and I never pick them up and read them twice. This book will be the exception.

A salvage crew goes to the Arctic Circle to recover a scientific exploration ship that went missing over 40 years ago. They don’t expect survivors ... Surprise MF’ers!
This was a well done science-fiction, (light) horror thriller. Not so heartfelt as The Abyss. More like the campy, horror thrills of Deep Rising. It’s not ground breaking (moist, monsters in the dark). But it’s done well, even if a bit predictable.
The script, specifically the dialogue between the crew, was great. I loved Captain Carpenter. Is he a nod to John Carpenter? I don’t know. However, the entire story felt like a homage.
The art and the coloring were nice. It was cool, moody and atmospheric. And those Gary Frank variant covers ... all love.
In short, if you like a quick, deep-sea jaunt, this is a good one. I do wish it was longer. I really enjoyed some of the characters.
I read this in single issue format (1-6).
