Dying Breath 3.5 out of 5
This issue wasn't too bad overall. I liked the pace of the story and the way it built up to a good payoff at the end. The artwork was descent from page to page, but I felt that the technique used to show the blood was a little odd, when compared to the art style of the book. The story was really clever, but there was one thing that I felt was holding it back. The was that it progressed was kind of told like that of a regular book. For example I don't need to be told "And then I said 'Hey Steve!' as I shouted it across the room". I think that the artwork should be able to apply that same storytelling device, so you can build more and use fewer text boxes. Overall though I did like it and I liked where it went. I think it's a fun zombie story with a killer ending, pun intended!
