Prophet, Volume 5: Earth War by Brandon Graham, Simon Roy
4.0
This was definitely one of the more coherent stories in the prophet universe, and as near as I can tell, it actually tied everything up in a rather satisfying ending. I’m really glad to have read this one. The narrative overall wasn’t especially tight, but it would be hard to do that and also span as epic a scope as this does.
As an end cap to reading TPBs 1-5 in order, I’d recommend the series. It’s space opera and swashbuckling adventure stories in the tradition of 1950s-era science fiction, with a lot of the lack of social and political nuance that those had, but if you don’t mind that too much, the art is fantastic (If very bloody).
