Quick Facts Dust to Dust, Publication information ...

Publication history

The series was marketed with a sneak peek of an eight-page digital preview which was released on iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch.[5]

Plot

The story took place in the days immediately after World War Terminus.

Reception

The series holds an average rating of 7.7 by eight professional critics on the review aggregation website Comic Book Roundup.[6] James Orbesen of PopMatters gave the series a positive review, stating: "Dust to Dust is a fine prequel that doesn’t really rock the foundations of its source material. But I imagine this project was never intended to perform that function. What this comic does achieve is broadening one of science fiction’s most beloved tales through philosophical discourse, not moody atmospherics or pulse pounding action. A nice piece of the canon that doesn’t upset or offend."[7] Chad Nevett who reviewed most of the issues for Comic Book Resources expressed that while he doubted the series validity upon its original announcement he greatly enjoyed the series when he actually read it.[8][9][10][11]
