A review by brandonadaniels
Inferno by Jonathan Hickman by Jonathan Hickman, Valerio Schiti, Stefano Caselli

5.0

My third time reading this. It gets better each time. The immediate aftermath of this series, X Lives/X Deaths, the cartoonishly villainous portrayal of Moria, and the surprising exit by Hickman certainly affected past reads. Now that we are in the endgame, The Fall of X, I can view this series a little more clear eyed. It’s more so the pivotal halfway point I suppose, with Hickman wanting to show a few more (but not all) of his cards in his way out. He pays off some of the things he set up in HoxPoX, and he has lots of fun with snarky banter. The art is of course stellar, and the series is almost as rereadable as HoxPox. I’ll always be bummed that he left when he did, but I cannot hold that against this book.
