Writer: Donny Cates
“God Country” is a new comic book series from innovative American publisher Image Comics. The title revolves around an enchanted sword that was brought to a West Texas town by a storm. An old widower named Emmett Quinlan is suffering from either Alzheimer’s disease or dementia (we are aware of the differences between the two and hope we do not cause offence by using the terms interchangeably in this critique). Emmett has his mental and physical health mysteriously restored upon wielding the sword.
