Out this week from Zenescope Entertianment – Monster Planet #3 is out in print and digitally – here are some of my thoughts!
Mankind has all but been wiped out, decimated by a virus that turns us into primal beasts. Only a handful of humans are left struggling to survive in a hostile world. But scientists among them have discovered a way to cure the virus. To save us they must call on monsters of our nightmares—vampires, werewolves and worse—who hold the key to the cure. Now, one team is in a race against time to find the lord of the vampires and convince him to help save the thing he despises most…man.

Hitting the midway point of this mini series and we get a bit of a history lesson. The lesson is that there are a lot of problems! The reptile spread is one thing, but the other monsters may be a bigger problem. We meet one of these and she’s human, she doesn’t care about the cure, she wants to be ruler of hell!
This was a slower issue that the others, with a lot of set up to a big fight near the end. The problems are going to mount up on this run back to base, and there is a promise of something worse!
This was a good setup issue, and the next two will hopefully be of a faster pace!
