The pencils, colouring and inking are very effective at communicating the horror atmosphere that they're going for. Glad to see Ewing get paired with good art talent, and hopefully this can be his breakthrough comic. Strange to see him only writing one book though, after he's been juggling 2 or 3 books at a time for the past few years.
I was gonna skip this but Al Ewing is my guy so guess I gotta give it a chance

It's not too difficult to predict what's going to happen next, but the staging and ambience is handled well.
"We live in a world of cowards. We live in a world full of small minds who are afraid. We are ruled by those who refuse to risk anything of their own. Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark
Is this Ewing's first foray into horror? I've mostly read his cosmic stuff.

This reminds me of Bruce Jones run except the panel layout is not very dynamic. If there is more Banner than Hulk I will lose interest to be honest.

For Marvel it is, as most of his Marvel work is either cosmic or Avengers. I don't know if he's done any 2000AD stuff in the horror genre though.
Wouldn't surprise me at all if something else is announced in the Sept or Oct solicits. Kelly Thompson also only has one known Marvel book (West Coast Avengers, though she's also on Nancy Drew for another publisher) and she's admitted she has three more Marvel titles waiting to be announced. Al might have one or two more as well.
