It’s hard to tell just what is a dream now, other than to sort out this madness through a mystery woman and her fortune-telling skills. What is human? Who is the Nameless, other than a puppeted soul guided by cruel destiny? I feel as though he is a part of the reader, feeling some sort of humanity within himself, yet well aware of the acts of brutality somewhat engaged in. Which brings me back to the question of this book. So much optimism, for just a few panels leading to the terrible pathos. I think of that poor woman, ordered to stay put while her comrades remain maimed. But then again, just how much of this fiction can I take seriously? There is so much horror, with little glimmers of hope, snuffed out by the next issue. Surprise, the veiled woman is Grant Morrison. I was almost hoping for some insane meta reveal much like that in his past work in Animal Man. I engage at the strange torment within this series, and wonder what goes through Grant Morrison’s mind. But who is the Veiled Lady and what part will she play in Earth’s salvation-or its damnation? Imprisoned within the labyrinthine mind of a monstrous alien lifeform, there can be no escape, no exit, and no hope. ![]() ![]() “The end has come for Nameless and the crew of the White Valiant. ![]() Pages: 29, Publish Date: December 23, 2015. ![]()
