Comic ¿Que opinan de rook exodus?

Post image

Bueno, honestamente a mí me llama mucho la atención al igual que los otros títulos de Ghost machine si soy honesto y realmente me gustaría hablar de este nuevo universo de cómics de image

Really great story & art hampered and diminished by a ridiculous release schedule. Newest issue just released - next issue? December.

To be fair, I imagine that's just how long it takes Fabok to draw such detailed pages. You can't force him to go faster without sacrificing what you like about his art. Personally I'd sacrifice release schedule over artistic integrity any day - there's plenty of other stuff to read while you wait for this.

I'd prefer they just release arcs when Jason has 5 or 6 issues done. It's near impossible to keep what occurred last issue in your head when you have to wait 3 or 4 months

u/kukov Sep 14 '26

This sounds like a fair solution actually. Just go on hiatus until you have 6 issues banked then release them monthly, then the trade.

u/trekie140 Sep 14 '26

That’s what Hellboy did and it worked. I think Ghost Machine tried to do so many ongoing series just so they could shop the IPs around. I have no idea if it worked or not.

u/ACBReturns Sep 14 '26

Seriously that or go the Criminal route and release it when it’s complete as a collected trades.

u/inactionupclose Sep 14 '26

That's what I've done with this title, no more "monthly" issues, I'm just going wait for the TPB going forward.

u/Strom41 Sep 14 '26

Agreed. It's hurting the story momentum. The art isn't top tier either - it's good but 3 months between issues good? Sorry, but no.

u/BADFiSH_c137 Sep 15 '26

Pretty unfair take - the art is absolutely top tier.

This may sound wild, but you can go back to the older issue before reading the new one.

u/GJacks75 Sep 15 '26

This may sound wild, but I shouldn't have to.

u/Jheppers26 Sep 14 '26

World and character designs alone make this worth it for me, but it is also a fun story, got the deluxe and it's amazing. Waiting on volume 2

u/MuchPepe Sep 14 '26

Do you know if it has been announced?

1

u/Jheppers26 Sep 14 '26

Nah, don't think they have even put out enough issues to have a v2 yet

u/MuchPepe Sep 14 '26

😭😭

u/Jheppers26 Sep 14 '26

Yeah... I agree

March 2nd 2027 😭

u/Nerdlors13 Sep 15 '26

Last I saw on League of Comics geeks, the next trade is projected to come out early 2027 like February. But that may have changed. I also don’t know if that was an official announcement or if it was just extrapolation.

u/FanofBobRooney Sep 14 '26

It’s great but like other people have said the release schedule kind of sucks. Otherwise it’s been 10/10 for me. Would highly recommend checking it out.

u/Fvtvrewave87 Sep 14 '26

I’ll be dead by the time it wraps up

u/XquietFreakX Sep 14 '26

Highly interested in this story so I'll be a waiting

u/Ready_Player_ Sep 14 '26

Great read. Check it out.

u/SoyTonatiuh Sep 15 '26

Awesome book with great art and good writing

u/FioreBambino47 Sep 14 '26

Volume one was incredible, one of the best first volumes in the history of Image Comics. I'm personally trade-waiting on volume two; I can't wait to read it.

It's definitely my second favorite thing in Ghost Machine's lineup after Geiger and way above all the rest.

6

u/DooM_Guy_OG Sep 14 '26

I enjoyed it more than Geiger

8

u/FioreBambino47 Sep 14 '26

Not me; Geiger is an all-time banger, IMHO. It's either my favorite or second-favorite ongoing of the past few years; it's kind of a tie between Geiger, WorldTr33, and Phantom Road.

u/Betelgeuse3fold Sep 14 '26

Really? Geiger really jumps out at me from the shelves. I'm literally about to walk out the door to go to the comic shop. I'm going to pick up Terminal, but I'm starting to think Geiger will be the next thing I try on

3

u/FioreBambino47 Sep 14 '26

I think it's been perfect thus far. One of if not the most interesting Fallout stories. And I love Fallout stories.

2

u/Betelgeuse3fold Sep 14 '26 edited Sep 14 '26

Interesting.

I just got back with with 2 issues of Terminal and volume 1 of Rogue Sun. I'll keep Geiger on my radar. I saw that it's not crazy far, I feel I like I saw issue 20 something at the store.

I'll do like battle beast; wait for the next trade, get caught up, then start buying singles

u/DaigoroYojimbo Sep 14 '26

Personally I like Gieger a lot more than Terminal (and I consider myself a big Robert Kirkman fan).

Terminal is only 2 issues in (so I shouldn't critique it), but right now I think Gieger is one of my favorite ongoing series (next to Battle Beast and Absolute Batman).

u/Amitmandal001 Sep 14 '26

Great design.

u/monte44444 Sep 15 '26

It’s great!

3

u/ryboyf2 Sep 14 '26

I have been loving it. It is just taking way to long to come out

2

u/greenglider732 Sep 14 '26

It’s really good, but it’s not consistent enough release wise. IMO it’s hard for a series to gain momentum like that.

2

u/Free_Signature_6754 Sep 14 '26

volume 1 was great, any idea when volume 2 is out?

2

u/beansdash Sep 14 '26

i find that with all this ghost machine stuff that its hard to read all of it. am i really missing much if i just read geiger?

2

u/Particular_Method_83 Sep 14 '26

Geiger is a really good series but it connects to the rest of the unnamed universe like Redcoat and junkyard Joe. I also believe that after the next issue there is going to be a crossover with Redcoat.

2

u/eight13 Sep 14 '26

Fabolous art and character design. The story is...odd. I don't want to spoil it, but what a choice!

2

u/Gullinga Sep 15 '26

Yo amo el arte de Fabok. Se parece maravilloso en la volumen Deluxe

2

u/GabrielRearte Sep 17 '26

Que es una puta genialidad. El progreso de Fabok como dibujante y diseñador es relevante.

3

u/Rustyd97 Sep 14 '26

Some of the best art I've ever seen. Story is very meh. Release schedule is shit

u/International_Crab85 Sep 16 '26

I enjoy it a great deal.
