DEAD MAN'S RUN #3
GREG PAK- STORY/ TONY PARKER-ART/ DAVID CURIEL-COLORS/ JOSH REED-LETTERS

We once again join the young cartographer, Sam Tinker, in his endeavors to escape the many layers of Hell. Can Sam save his sister and escape Hell alive?

What I liked about this issue; a brother searching for his sister in all the challenges of literal hell. They were both killed and sent their by a man (pictured in the image above) who has the Midas touch, turning everything to gold. It's a great premise and Greg Pak has executed the story well with a definite plan in place of where he wants to go next. Also thrown into the mix is a lady warden of hell who has chains for wins, huge demon/monsters that look similar to Clayface called Gluttons, demon guards at the portal of escape, and a very unlikely group of people helping out Sam to find his sister as they all want to leave hell asap.

I honestly can't find much of anything that I didn't like in this issue other than I wish it was longer. Tony Parker's art sets the mood perfectly for the story Pak is telling and being a fan of both individuals probably had some effect on me enjoying it so much. It feels like things are going to even crazier as the issues roll out.

Great writing, great art, giving the marriage of the two in one issue with concepts that are fresh and quirky is a perfect combination to make this book stand out.
