Review Overview

The Morning Star, written by Tim Daniel and David Andry (Resonant, End After End, Denizen) and illustrated by Marco Finnegan, is a period-style comic that takes us on a journey that transcends space and time while exploring the supernatural world in a unique way.

The Morning Star revolves around the Garrett family who lost their loved one Nathan Garrett in a wildfire incident. A year later, Jolene Garrett takes her family to the Morning Star lookout to scatter Nathan’s remains and find solace through closure. However, they soon realize that something beyond their imagination awaits them there – something powerful enough to transcend space and time.

The first thing that catches your attention when you pick up this comic is its stunning vintage-style artwork. Marco Finnegan has done an exceptional job of capturing the essence of the 1950s with his illustrations. From the clothes to the surroundings, everything has been meticulously detailed to give readers an authentic feel of that era.

The Morning Star is a great blend of captivating storytelling and stunning artwork. While the debut issue may feel slow for some readers who are looking for more supernatural elements right off the bat, it sets up the premise nicely for what’s to come in future issues.

Tim Daniel, David Andry, and Marco Finnegan have done an incredible job of creating beautiful comic book while keeping readers engaged with its relatable characters and beautiful artwork. With its unique storyline and impressive artwork, this comic book has the potential in future issues!

The Morning Star #1 hits local comic shops on March 27, 2024 (FOC 2/25) from Mad Cave Studios.
