james_desantis 's review for:
Plunge (Hill House Comics)
by Joe Hill
The atmosphere feels very "The Thing" and Joe Hill basically says this is his tribute to it. I mean the main guys last name is Carpenter so...lolz.
But the story is basically a group of "deep divers" or "retrieval divers" whatever the name is it, go to a island to find out what happened to a old ship crew. Upon getting there the dead seem to come back to life. Don't worry, not a zombie tale. With the group of divers not unsure of everything and the old crew, thought to be dead, now possessed by something and asking for "freedom" what will happen next?
Joe Hill does a solid plot here with a pretty interesting turn of events. I mean, the main plot is pretty simple and seen it before. It's the characters that are fun and the deaths I didn't expect happening to keep me coming back. It also helps the art is fantastic, and feels like a 80's or 90's horror film.
While I thought the ending wrapped up too quick and a bit cliché, I still enjoyed it. Not as much as Basketcase but overall fun horror story. A 3.5 out of 5.
