Underground gets some respect at Ain’t it Cool News.
“Mr. Pasty: UNDERGROUND (Image Comics) When Chief Running Site asked me to take a look at a book about small-town rangers fighting to preserve the integrity of some underground caves, I politely smiled and thought “Man this guy must hate my guts.” In fact, I even whipped out issue #1 after climbing into bed, expecting to conk out by page three. Instead, I was up for hours digesting the next two issues and marveling at how a series devoid of “superheroes” could be so friggin’ entertaining. UNDERGROUND grips you and envelops you in a world that is so completely realized and populated with characters so thoroughly fleshed out, it’s not an exaggeration to call this the year’s best miniseries. Hollywood writers who dig through a creative trash can to find anything salvageable for the next big movie or TV show could learn a lot about storytelling from just one issue of UNDERGROUND.”
