Rick Remender and Jerome Opeña team up for another emotional roller-coaster experience in their new series, SEVEN TO ETERNITY #1. In this premier issue, it has thirty-four pages of pure Remender-Opeña collaborative visual initial sketches by Opeña himself, and similar to Deadly Class, rick’s music list in conceptualizing and writing this new series. The first page already sets the tone on the characterizations of the major characters, particularly Adam and the so-called “Mud King”. Additionally, Rick loves to put his characters into his patented emotional grinder as the first arc shows how the protagonists go through hell no matter what they do to avoid the predetermined “fate”. Unlike other opuses Rick made, the author emphasizes more on magic with the twist of fear and hopelessness than on science fiction wackiness. And, his trademark grim and resilient storytelling sets the pace as readers witness how the main protagonist confronts the familiar “abandon-all-hope” trope. Indeed, Remender fans/readers and even newbies can definitely dig this newest addition as long as our Adam can pull this off.
