4/5
One day in Wausau, Wisconsin, everyone who was dead were mysteriously revived. With the world in shock, both on a secular and religious level, the people of Wausau are quarantined from the rest of the world until they figure out where the revivers came from and are made entirely sure they are safe. Dana Cypress, a local cop, becomes a part of the Revitalized Citizen Arbitration Team and soon finds out her sister, Em, is a reviver. Not only that, but she knows she's been murdered. When trying to find her sister's killer, Dana finds out there are more secrets the small town has been hiding.
Tim Seeley writes like a beast in this series of 47 issues, keeping the quality pretty much on par throughout. Though the final arc of this story feels a bit rushed compared to the rest of the series' slow pace, the story still comes to a satisfying and heartbreaking conclusion. Everyone's character arcs are clear and defined, never once leaving a dull moment and the ending of each issue always left wanting more.
Of course, this story would not be as complete without the art of Mike Norton. Norton's art is clear and concise, allowing readers to quickly take in the scene. On top of that, Norton is also able to establish the emotions of the characters both with body language and facial expressions, a difficult thing to do at the level this was done.
There's also a fun crossover issue with Chew.
The faults of this series are few and far in between and I greatly enjoyed this series from beginning to end.
