Project Autumn tells the story of Orion, a troubled young man with a love of video games, who finds himself ‘volunteered’ to become a ‘Sunsetter’, a being whose job is to destroy worlds which have been flagged as ready to end. So, with assistance and guidance of a faceless interface, Orion finds himself transitioned between many different worlds, all of which are on the verge of ending and require his not so subtle influence to push them over the edge. However, will Orion find himself a vocation to which he is ideally suited to and, if so, what will he gain from it and, ultimately, what might it cost him?
Project Autumn is an enjoyably frenetic, fast paced story which feels incredibly immersive and epic. The pace here goes nought to sixty straight from the get go as writer A-J Foulkes gives us a plot which feels very much like Assassin’s Creed crossed with Sliders, maybe with a touch of Reapers mixed in, though on a grander scale. However, despite the breakneck pace the book gives off, it is bogged down somewhat by the cluttered writing. This is a title which fits a great deal into it and, while exposition is necessary, it sometime feels like more is used than is necessary instead of simply allowing the story to unfold naturally. That said, the finale, while not a cliffhanger leaves a lot of questions to tease the reader back, as the information given sets up some interesting growth going forward, notably in the expansion of the two main characters.
As for the art, which shows each of the army of artists on board draw pages based upon which world the story is focusing on, while it may have initially been the draw to the book, it’s safe to say after the execution that that aspect is delivered here without fault. Despite there being numerous styles of multiple talent on display, each and every one steps up to provide something beautiful. What’s more, each style looks to have been perfectly matched to its respective world, particularly Lynne Triplett whose unique, manga inspired artwork meshes perfectly in the techno world visited. Sadly, if there is one problem with the art it is that of a lack of space as all ten artists, dishing up the pages between them, rarely get the space to make much impact, the notable exception being the half page splash of a dragon. That said though, this first issue feels like a taster of things to come and, if each artist gets more space, it’s highly probable that each one will be bringing something special.
Project Autumn #1, despite a few niggles, is a fun comic book which nicely showcases the talents of Small Press’ top artists while laying the groundwork for a truly original and interesting story. If you are a fan of an exciting tale, or simply a lover a great art then get this book, because you’ll find both of these in spades.

Thanks for the article. I have continually observed that many people are wanting to lose weight simply because they wish to appear slim along with attractive. However, they do not always realize that there are other benefits just for losing weight in addition. Doctors say that overweight people are afflicted with a variety of health conditions that can be instantly attributed to their particular excess weight. The great thing is that people who sadly are overweight and suffering from various diseases are able to reduce the severity of their particular illnesses by way of losing weight. You are able to see a continuous but notable improvement with health if even a negligible amount of weight-loss is achieved.

Thanks for the helpful write-up. It is also my belief that mesothelioma has an very long latency period, which means that the signs of the disease might not exactly emerge right until 30 to 50 years after the first exposure to asbestos. Pleural mesothelioma, that is certainly the most common style and has an effect on the area about the lungs, might cause shortness of breath, chest muscles pains, plus a persistent cough, which may result in coughing up blood vessels.
