As the world of W0RLDTR33 progresses, we delve further into the creepy underworld of the Undernet.
This is a fascinating title, and Issue #4 continues the drama: the naked female assassin, the sadistic intent of the Undernet, once unwittingly set loose upon humanity. Oh, what a mistake it was to be curious about the underbelly of the internet, that infecting machine, relentless and oblivious to polite society. One look and it embeds itself on your very soul.
Oh, what a tangled web James Tynion IV weaves, showing us the people on the run, those who have been inhabited and forever haunted by viewing the Undernet. The intimate, lonely scenes of screens and screams. And artist Fernando Blanco (colours by Jordie Bellaire, letters by Aditya Bidikar, edits by Steve Foxe).
In issue 4, the narrative is subdivided like the data packets themselves: heavily and tightly gridded pages of nine panels, coloured in washes of orange covering the dialogue, underpinned with pale blue, then huge panels of eruptions of explosive fury, violence, and mayhem. The boot blocks of killing. It continues to be hypnotic, a title to thrill and chill us, please check out this one.
