Lemire and Sorrentino's Primordial

[QUOTE]Ask most space aficionados and they'll easily tell you that the first humans to be launched into orbit were the Soviet Union's Yuri Gagarin, soon followed by the United States' Alan Shepard. But ask what living creatures were the first to leave the bonds of Earth's gravity and many might not guess that it was a Siberian Husky/Terrier mix and two primates.

These forgotten animals astronauts, led by Laika the dog, are the subject of "Primordial," a new sci-fi comic book series from Image written by Eisner Award winning creator Jeff Lemire ("Black Hammer," "Sweet Tooth") and showcasing art by Italian illustrator Andrea Sorrentino ("Old Man Logan," "Joker: Killer Smile") and colorist Dave Stewart ("Hellboy").[/QUOTE]

Anything these 2 do is an automatic buy from me.

It's a 6 issue mini, article has a lettered preview of the first issue.

Just added this to my pull this afternoon when I stopped by my LCS.

looks very interesting. Will more than likely pick this mini up.

You had me at 'Lemire and Sorrentino'!

I'm not much of a Lemire fan, liking most his earliest, now likely forgotten, unheard of work, but now and then he creates/writes a title I enjoy: Primordial could well be one of these--.

Great early review on CBR's front page today. Makes me more excited to pick this book up.

First issue is mostly set up, but very good.

The panel work is masterful in Primordial. Cant wait to see where it goes from here

Still enjoying this series. It’s worth reading once, but I can’t imagine myself coming back to it too often.
