About book Animal Armies. Jeff Lemire (2011)

This series is turning out to be even better than the few things that I had heard about it.I wasn't a fan of Lemire's art at the start of the story (back in vol. 1) really. I thought it was appropriate for the story but I felt that it could've been better. In this story line there are moments where Lemire drops the stylistic choices and draws more familiar comic style. The stark difference makes for some very visually appeasing artwork.But the main reason that I'm loving this is the story itself. It's a concept that is pretty ridiculous, but Lemire writes it without a hint of his tongue in his cheek. He makes you believe in a world where children were born with the characteristics of animals. A world where characters can share dreams and prophecies are real. It's amazing. This third volume of the Vertigo comic book series begins with a slow build of stewing mysteries and emerging character relationships. Then, in the final two issues, it blooms into an explosive climax of pure action and intensity that exceeds in scale anything found in the previous two volumes. This is the final reckoning, the release of the long-embering flames. Like the Phoenix, one status quo is burnt to the ground and another assumes its place. I am very excited for the rest of this series moving forward. I will also single out Jeff Lemire's artwork. While it has been stunning throughout the book, in this volume he gets bolder with his layout and storytelling choices. Lemire is growing as an artist in both the literary and visual sense. Great series all around.

One of my favorites. This would make one hell of a TV show on AMC or HBO.
