The Wake by Scott Snyder5/19/2023 In Murphy's hands, Leeward's world is exceptionally well rendered - from her dolphin "sidekick" Dash and her airplane-meets-tree house home to her waterlogged city and beyond. Murphy excels at both the minutia of world building and also the grandeur of an epic worthy of the big screen. If Snyder got most of that out in this issue (which it feels like he has) readers should have relatively clear sailing ahead.įortunately, Snyder has Murphy and colorist Matt Hollingsworth's stunning visuals to handle the massive world building more organically. Snyder does his best to weave it in as naturally as possible, but there's a lot of important information as the story heads into this wildly new world and some of the more awkward information dumps are an unfortunate but likely necessary evil. This installment is a bit heavy on the exposition.
