Reviewed By Pablo Arriaga

The coloring is what continues to deliver strongly every time, with story and pencils/inks following closely behind. Humans #3 dives into the fallout of war Johnny has to deal with. Waking up the next morning to find a blur between his present and and the past he seemingly hasn’t left behind. All presented in a way that’ll remind you of those good and fucking insane moments from Full Metal Jacket.

When the shit hits the fan, Keller and Neely won’t let you rest until either you or Johnny shit their pants. And Johnny is a Human, he doesn’t do that. Probably one of my favorite things in this issue is that we’re finally seeing the Humans plan ahead, making us readers look forward to something in the future on top of the now usual antics from the Humans.

Two new original tracks come with this issue, for free! Do download them because they’re fantastic. Humans live to fight, die to ride. My passion for this book is relentless. You should get a patch, let the world know you’re a motherfucking human! Don’t let other in the comic shop leave without knowing it.
