The Massive: Ninth Wave

In this concluding arc of Brian Wood's eco-thriller, The Massive, the crew of the Kapital faces its final reckoning as the world continues to unravel after "the Crash." Published by Dark Horse in 2015–2016, this six-issue series sees artist Garry Brown take the helm, bringing a gritty, visceral energy to the hunt for the elusive Ninth Wave. It matters as the tense, philosophical capstone to Wood's acclaimed meditation on environmental collapse, loyalty, and the search for meaning in a broken world.
