GREAT "mystery box" style story. Captivating artwork and stunning colors. Go in blind! I knew nothing about it and had a blast. Excited for more!

James Tynion IV never fails in his writing. This is a genuine masterpiece. The artwork is amazing too. You can feel every emotion the characters are going through.

Intriguing concept - a group of people in their thirties are all invited to their friend Walter's lake house for a week of fun and merriment. They don't necessarily all know each other - some are friends from high school, college, work etc. but they at least all know Walter so it should be a great time. Except on their first night there they discover that the world is literally ending. Fire is reining down all over the world and people are melting to death. How are they all safe at the lake. What is happening?! They have a lot of hard questions for Walter - but he isn't exactly forthcoming with answers. In fact - he's making himself very scarce. The answers that they seek could be right in front of them - but the truth could be more horrifying than any of them can imagine. A dark graphic novel - I can't wait to see how this series continues.
This is a strange one. There are layers that Tynion hasn't gotten to yet. I really want to see where this ride takes me .
I went into this completely blind as to what it was about and am so glad I did. What an incredible story (and art!) and I can't wait to see how it wraps up.

I’ll definitely have to go back and read it from the top—there are enough characters that it becomes a little complicated to keep track—but the mystery, concepts, build-up, and development (to say nothing of the gorgeous, gorgeous art) are so compelling. I can’t wait to read the second volume.
