I hate space stories.

Well, hate is a strong word. I don't find them interesting for the most part.

So I heard a lot of good things about Omega Men and I figured I'd give it a try. I liked Red Rising book series, Enders Games, Mass Effect video games. So I figured I'd try it out.

This is one depressing ass series. I've never read anything related to Green Lateran, and maybe that wasn't the best idea, cause first few issues I was lost. Luckily the story picks up rather fast and by issue 4 or 5 I was in to it pretty quickly. The Omega Men isn't really trying to tell a story of good vs evil. It's very in the middle, and picking sides is silly to do.

Sure there is a very sick individual who likes to kill a mass amount of people, but our group of Omega Men do some horrific shit too. Very much like the best stories out there it makes you think past just the simple story of who wins and who loses.

Before the last issue I was on the fence if I should give this a 3 or a 4. I went with a 4 thanks to the final issue, which I could see would divide people. If you want a simple answer in the end, wrapping up with a little red bow, you'll be disappointed. This story wraps up with you having to question everything about what's right and wrong. Who's to blame, who's right, and why we do this.

That's what makes this story pretty special, it makes you think once you're finished. The only negatives for me is I found it confusing at the start and sometimes a bit dialog heavy at moments where the art could speak for it. But overall, very much worth reading.

Also the art is fantastic.

Okay I'll shut up, go read it now!
