LIBRARY JOURNAL (STARRED) -- Ellis (The Wild Storm, Vol.3) and Howard (The Astounding Wolf-Man: Complete Collection) deliver what might be the single most fast-paced, action-packed graphic novel of all time, with nearly every page featuring either an explosion, gunfight, or leap from something either very high up or moving extremely fast. This collection of the seven-issue miniseries is a total blast.

A delightfully relentless, Fury Road-ish adventure

Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2019

Verified Purchase

I was surprised by the number of critical reviews of this comic. Lots of people put it down for lacking substance or emotional depth. In an edition of Orbital Operations, Ellis’ fantastic weekly newsletter, Ellis said of Cemetery Beach, “…this one all started with Jason and I finishing up volume 2 of Trees and my saying, “You want to go into volume 3, or do you want to do a palate-cleanser kind of thing?” And Jason sobbing “oh god yes please.” We decided to do an action piece. Jason likes to moodboard, in a way, and sends me art and photography he likes that sort of surround a space he’d like to play in. In the meantime, I was working out how to do an action piece that would also be an appalling punishment for Jason.”

I think Cemetery Beach is exactly what it set out to be, a delightfully relentless, Fury Road-ish chase across a 1980s-ish dystopian sci-fi off world colony where everyone is at least as mad as the Mad Hatter. The art is fantastic and, so help me, whenever Warren Ellis puts words to paper or screen, I’m there to read them and I’m never disappointed. No matter where he takes me, I always feel I’m in good, unrelentingly creative hands. And no matter where his stories are set or who is doing the talking, there’s something about his dialogue that feels like home sweet-snarky home.

Ellis at his action pack BEST!

Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2019

So yeah I just finished the explosive breakneck sci-fi action thriller Cemetery Beach written by God himself Warren Ellis with fast fun and fresh art by Jason Howard, published by Image comics, now I have a lot of love for this creative team as I absolutely love their other book Trees, but this book kind of bucks the trend of Ellis' new style of moody slow-burning narratives and goes full-on non-stop action and mayhem like The Raid mixed with Fury Road after 5 Red Bulls, and I have to say it's a total blast from start to finish! The story for this one is about an army recon spy sent to an off-world colony established in secret, he gets caught and makes a quick escape with a local subversive named Grace Moody, the rest is them cutting a bloody chaotic path to Cemetery Beach and back to earth! I love this, as the book in a few ways reminds me of another newer book by Ellis, Shipwreck only cranked up to 15 with nothing but nos in the gas lines! I can't recommend this highly enough!

Cliffhanger, But A Fun Ride

Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2019

This had an engaging premise, very good banter, extensive action, an interesting world, and decent, (though sketchy), artwork.

Our hero Mike has been sent to a lost and forgotten off-Earth colony to see what's up. It's gone all "1984" and Mike hooks up with Grace, a resistance fighter with crazy skilz. They meet cute during their torture and escape in a barrage of bullets and wisecracks. They run around for a while with cutrate Gestapo types chasing them. Safe haven; escape sort of; get ready to return for round two.

The plot made reasonable sense. The action was over the top, in that apparently neither Mike nor Grace can be shot, dropped from great heights, or blowed up with any lasting consequences. But I didn't really care about that because if they die in Issue 1 then the story really loses a lot.

It's a quick fun read with smart writing and a bit of stretched out chase/action padding. The drawing is intentionally a bit angular and old school, but that fit well with the gloomy and crappy Earth colony vibe, so I went with it. A happy find.

(Please note that I had a chance to read a free ecopy of this book without a review requirement, or any influence regarding review content should I choose to post a review. Apart from that I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.)

Warren Ellis at a potency that eats through sheet metal.

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2019

Verified Purchase

"Utopia" comes from the Greek ou-topos meaning 'no place' or 'nowhere'. Yep, that sounds about right.
Picture if you will; in the 1920s, a group of industrialists and scientists discovered a method to travel to another world. Not a very *good* world, but for some(many) of us, "another" is reason enough.
It takes about 100 years for the world they left behind to realize this, and send a somewhat suicidal specialist to see what those people found.
And so begins Warren Ellis' version of Mad Max: Fury Road; A man, a woman, a world that has literally gone mad, and a nonstop chase across what is ultimately dubbed Giant Toilet Planet. There will be fistfights, knife fights, gunfights, and every single vehicle shown *will* explode.
I hope Ellis returns to this world to tell more stories just as I hope George Miller returns to his wastelands to do the same, but my only real question is, "Why hasn't Amazon Prime Video made a series out of this?"

This would be a great low budget action sf movie

Not my favorite comic and the art is excellent quality but not my taste. I did find the president of the giant fascist toilet planet to be a bit familiar by coincidence.

Chase through a new world. You might as well jump in.

Here we have a world created by outer planets colonization. The other colony grew separately from our society and thus our main character has a adventure. It feels like the greatest action movie. Can't wait for the next volume.

An und für sich eine gute Storyidee.
Leider ist die Umsetzung eine schier endlose Wiederholung von schiessen, rennen, etwas explodiert und es geht wieder von vorne los.
Der eher krude Zeichenstil reisst es dann leider für mich auch nicht raus.

Reviewed in Canada on July 11, 2019

Cemetery Beach is a fantastic Warren Ellis-written comic. Full of classic Ellis dialogue parts, and cover-to-cover action. The art by Jason Howard is a lot of fun. The story might really appeal to long-time fans of Warren Ellis stories. It might be a little inscrutable to readers new to Ellis.
