I picked up Epoch #4 without having read issues 1-3. Top Cow always does a terrific job with their page 1 recaps, and this was no exception. I felt like I had everything I needed to know to enjoy this issue. This issue has solid action and good, comic fun. You don't read Epoch to uplift you or better touch your humanity. This is an adverterous escape.

The artwork didn't click with me, but the story was strong and enjoyable. I will definitely seek out issue #5 when it is released!
