Sometimes a creator’s love for a pet project just shines through like a ray of sunshine.
Otherworld, written and drawn in stunning detail by Phil Jimenez, shows just such a love.
Combining science fiction and fantasy with real-world values, Jimenez, one of the classiest gentlemen in comics, kicks off his dream project by flipping readers back and forth from a world-threatening danger in Otherworld and the lives of some ordinary college students.
But the fate of one of those students may hold dire consequences for both worlds.
An intriguing beginning to what promises to be a terrific series.
