INDIANA JONES FOR THE 21st CENTURY! Marvel Knights: Hulk and Glory writer Joseph Keatinge teams up with artist extraordinaire Leila del Duca for her Image Comics debut in an all-new ongoing series combining the urban fantasy of Fables and the globe-spanning adventure of Y: The Last Man. Kate Kristopher, once the most famous explorer of an Earth far more fantastic than the one we know, is forced to return to the adventurous life she left behind when a family secret threatens to destroy everything she spent her life protecting. Collects Shutter #1-6.

I loved the premise of this series. I was intrigued by the concept. But yet, this one just didn’t quite hit the mark. It was very confusing and chaotic throughout. We spend six issues running from place to place without much explanation or many revelations. I just wanted to learn a bit about Kate and and her past. Instead, we have to pause every few pages for some crazy action sequence and/or explosion. I was not loving it.
