WHAT'S GOOD?

This comic follows a really interesting format. It's a continuing story but there are one-off issues along with multi-part miniseries. It's quite refreshing with a unique style (plus there is always an awesome headshot every time Life fires his gun). It has a real Heavy Metal retro feel. Here is an example of a one panel self-contained story.

WHAT'S NOT SO GOOD (IN YOUR OPINION ONLY OF COURSE)?

This is not a complaint of this comic per say, but an overall piece of advice for creators of webcomics in general. We'd like to encourage webcomic creators to try and post their ongoing stories in a continuous issue so us fans can read more than one page at a time. Yes, we understand creators post as pages are complete, but eventually, you should be able to string them together for a better experience.

Let's take Life the Necropolis' recent story arc called "Darkness." We took the liberty of compiling the pages to get a great feel for how good this comic is. To us it's a hidden gem and we're glad we discovered it.
