The art is generally good, though the colors seem too bright compared to the tone of the story. The story is just okay. Gurney, to me, comes off as annoying. It is interesting seeing this version of him operate under the belief that all the Atreides are dead, in order to juxtapose his later disillusionment with them. Like most Dune works coming out, this one is unnecessary. The length of it is a strength and a weakness -- It's not long enough to outstay its welcome, but not long enough to sufficiently establish new characters, or stakes, or anything intriguing. Finally, Gurney's song lyrics just don't appeal to me.
Big Trouble In Little China Vol. 4 by Joe Eisma, Fred Van Lente
2.5
A decent effort but the fish out of water trope gets played out very early on but just keeps going. Much of the humor is reference based and is instantly dated. It was written by a middle aged white Ohioan and it shows. There are a few moments though that do make this feel like Big Trouble again, but not enough.
