Fraction's main tale of The World Eaters is quite a nice blend of mythic fantasy and science fantasy that I think Jack Kirby would have been proud of. It's also got entirely beautiful art with terrific coloring. I really don't understand all the hatred for this volume, though I would agree that the double-page panels are hard to follow in a TPB [8/10]. Sadly, the .1 issue the ends things off is a let-down; I'm increasingly convinced that it's almost impossible to tell an interesting story in these standalone one-offs [5/10].
