I very much enjoyed this book! To me, the visual nature of this book is what comics are meant to be. The creator clearly knows the medium and how to maximize the storytelling with it. Because this is a visual story, you’re not going to get a lot of dialogue or expositional stuff. Those things are minimal. This is full-speed action that is paced very well, in my opinion. I thought the beats were well done, and the reveals were in appropriate places. The visuals are extremely well done. The images felt kinetic, and have a big scope.
The bad part about this book is that is feels very much like a Resident Evil-type story that takes place 200 years from now. It has the evil corporation that created the zombies and everything! Also, I thought the talking Bear was an interesting choice. I’m not sure where talking, upright-walking animals come into play. Additionally, the characters are really thin, but there are several volumes to read, so I’m sure we’ll learn a lot more about them.
Overall, this book was a fun, mindless read. It had lots of action, and a well-paced story that kicked off well. I am looking forward to reading the rest of this series.

This was so sick
I feel like i like the art of Blame! Better even though they are the same universe but this story is a bit more exciting and i love the bear

BLAME! is closer to my heart, especially as an entire work, since Biomega unfortunately gets the rushed ending treatment. However, I did like the increase of character connections here, even if those connections don't get to be fully explored due to, once again, forced rushed ending.
Note to self that I read the first three volumes in one day (not the master editions) and the remaining volumes the next day.
