Descender #16


Image result for Descender #16

Descender, Issue #16 ends the "Singularities" arc, which focuses on Andy, the boy who Tim-21 was bought to be a companion of.  It shows his story after his mother dies, how he becomes friends with and then married to the woman who would become the leader of the Between, a cult of half-human, half-cyborg people just trying to survive.  This issue shows Driller's backstory.

The whole "Singularities" arc has shown pretty much nothing but backstories, and now that the arc is finished, there won't be any new Descender until December.  I'm pretty happy about this arc because it shows that the creators (Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen) are building for the future.  I do highly recommend this Image comic.  The art is all watercolors, so it's a little different from this particular cover.  The third trade paperback comes out in December, just before Christmas.
