I have to admit, Logan’s Run: Aftermath #4 took me by surprise. It was actually a really good science fiction story, that, like all good Sci-Fi stories, is routed in humanity.

This issue is basically the story of Tara, the main character’s long-time rival. Instead of making her a villain just for the sake of having an antagonist, writer Paul J. Salamoff gives her a very credible “origin” story that shows her slow descent into conflict with Logan. And it’s a great story, one that builds slowly, not just a “he embarrassed me so I’m going to make him pay” kind of tale. Very entertaining read and I’m actually looking forward to the next issue.

In this first issue of the new Legend of Isis series, we jump right into the thick of the action. The problem is there’s not really any set up. So if you’ve never read this title before you’re going to be a little bit lost, as I was.

Writers Darren G. Davis and Kenton Daniels deliver some great action for a first issue, most of the time premiere issue are all set up with about two pages of action at the very end of the book. In this case, I really think that that formula might have helped them a little.
