Lawless Book Four: Boom Town

I have been reading this story for a while now and it's gripping,with amazing art...just wish they will do a collected hardback volume sometimes recommended.

Lawless is, perhaps, the best non-Dredd story within the Megaverse for many years. Dan Abnett has created an extremely fleshed out world with colourful and varied characters. Yes it riffs off of classic Western tropes, but with the sci-fi elements there's enough originality there that it never feels like a cliché. More of a character and dialogue driven piece than an all out actioner, that old school Dredd fans might be uncomfortable with. But Phil Winslade's artwork makes every panel come alive, like a movie.

I bought all 4 books after seeing a review and being excited at the concept of this "space western"I'm disappointed. The only western thing about this series is that there is a saloon. In town and o yes also horses.When you want to see a cool character get in a western gun fight and save someone from trouble causers, what you'll actually get is the same character gets smacked in the face and told to shut up so we can have a diplomatic solution from our wonderful main character.When you think this character is cool if they just write the correct gunslinger anti hero situation for them, what you get is an injury and then a super fun I'm so depressed please read the story of me sulking around forever depressed draining all the fun from the world everytime I appear in a panel.This is not a space westernIts a space teenage drama

A good read set in the Dredd universe, looking forward to the next instalment.

This is basically a new arc with a really bizzare way to end on this volume. Massive fan of the first three Lawless books. This one not so much.

Art is fantastic and so detailed, the story is great and I will be looking for the next book.
