| Comic: O31: October 31st |

I'm convinced that O31 may be the best largely undiscovered comic you'll find online. An amazingly stylistic compilation of honed satirical wit, perceptive sociological commentary and characterful dialogue, this book doesn't subject itself to the particular strictures of any vogue idiom but rather reflects an almost cinematic expansiveness that is both stunning in it's scope and pleasantly classical in it's emphasis on traditional moral themes.
Along for the ride are a set of diverse protagonists, whose individual palatability is drawn from a uniform soundness of character that transcends the gulfs of physical distance, lifestyle and personal allegiance that separates them. The initial story arcs (composed of two individual, simultaneously running stories at a time) have served to highlight the origins and inherent interests of the primary characters, all the while cultivating a sense of “greater purpose” that speaks favorably to the massively epic tone the series will likely develop.
The caliber of the story itself is complimented by art that is, by turns, gritty, lush and visionary and features breathtaking backdrops that seem to effortlessly distill the most potent images of an dramatically compromised world. The artistic aptitude of the creators may be most clearly evidenced, however, by the characters themselves, who reflect in their designs every finer point of their well fashioned personalities and whose each tacit sentiment is served masterfully by a deftly rendered expressiveness that MAY be the series’ most striking artistic virtue.
This is simply a delightful series that seems less concerned with pandering to any particular genre than it is with telling a rich, fully engrossing story. Filled with sympathetic characters, even handed commentary on resonant themes of right and wrong and jaw-dropping art (from two different artists, no less) O31 is one of the most complete and, ultimately, rewarding online books you’re ever likely to read. |
