Huck created by Mark Millar and Rafael Albuquerque

Huck: Big Bad World is a new six-issue comic book miniseries created by writer Mark Millar and artist Rafael Albuquerque.  Published by Dark Horse Comics, it is a sequel to the 2015-16 miniseries, Huck.  Both series focus on Huck, an autistic man with extraordinary powers who tries to do one good deed every day.  Colorist Dave McCaig and letterer Clem Robins complete the creative team. 

In Huck Big Bad World, Huck, his mother, Anna Polina Marianna Kozar, and the mysterious Dr. Jack Harper were on a road trip with the goal of finding Harper's lost love, Sophia.  The trio also wanted to find the other secret super-humans who have been hiding around the world.  Now, Huck has found out why so many of these super-persons were smart to be in hiding.

Huck: Big Bad World #6 finds the Lucas Trust celebrating their recent success.  This organization has been searching out people with super powers and neutralizing them for over 20 years.  The organization's “Witch Finders” are on a killing spree, and they have reduced the number of super-persons to a few.

One of the survivors is Huck, but he is now more concerned about his pregnant girlfriend, Zoe Benson, and her son, Micah.  Hiding in the woods most of the other people with remarkable abilities have been murdered, Huck is about to walk into a trap in order to save another super-person.  Can the truth about “the old lady in the forest,” the mysterious figure who has given super-powers to random people around the world, save Huck and his new family?

THE LOWDOWN:  This is the second time that I have been on any kind of list that provides PDF copies of titles published by Dark Horse Comics.  The latest received is Huck: Big Bad World #6.

It should be no surprise that I am telling you again, dear readers, that a Mark Millar comic book is full of breathtaking surprises... because Huck: Big Bad World #6 is filled to the brim with breathtaking surprises, just as I said issue #5 was.  This final issue of the second Huck series offers shocks and revelations, as well as spinning a shocking fate for mankind.  This issue does not really set up a potential third series, but the events depicted in this issue certainly suggest the possibility of a humdinger of a next volume.

The creative team of Millar, Rafael Albuquerque, Dave McCaig, and Clem Robins deliver on the potential of this undeniably super series that issue #1 promised.  Well, dear readers, the Huck: Big Bad Day trade paperback will give you a chance to discover the awesomeness that you missed.

I READS YOU RECOMMENDS:  Fans of Mark Millar and of the first Huck series will want to try Huck: Big Bad World.

A+
