'Gate-Way: A New World' shows a strange version of an afterlife. Certainly not hopeful and definitely filled with dangers. It's all set in a sort of surreal looking abandoned city.Jake is an undercover cop trying to make a drug bust when things go wrong. He finds himself in an apartment shootout, and the next thing he knows, he's lying in an alley. He finds out he's been killed and is in a strange new world. He finds himself in Hope Town, a strangely rigid attempt at society. Outside the walls of the city, it's dangerous, but Jake suspects that all is not as it seems in Hope Town, so he sets out for Freedomtown, where the misfits end up. Besides these 2 groups of people, there are the strange creatures that prey on them and can kill them.Just as it was moving along, it came to an abrupt ending. It's an interesting setup and I'm curious where it's going. There are still lots of unanswered questions. Which makes this volume perhaps a bit unsatisfying. The art is interesting, but not my favorite. I've seen worse and I've seen better. The vague city shapes intrigued me.I was given a review copy of this graphic novel by Diamond Book Distributors and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
