Synopsis

One mistake can change everything. Ashlyn Calvert finds that out the hard way when a bad decision leads to the death of her best friend, Noah Anderson.

Only Noah isn't really gone. Thanks to his parents' company, the Infinity Division, there is a version of him skipping from one dimension to another, set on revenge for the death of his sister, Kori. When a chance encounter brings him face-to-face with Ash, he's determined to resist the magnetic pull he's felt for her time and time again. Because falling for Ash puts his mission in danger.

But there's more going on in Ash's alternate universe than either of them knows: a mysterious project called Omega. A conspiracy spanning multiple Earths and revolving around none other than Ash. Its creators would do anything to keep Omega secret . . .

Anything.

Goodreads review by Stewart on August 30, 2016

So it would appear to be something of a trend to have "real" writers write comics. That is to say, writers best known for their prose, not comics writing, have been increasingly visible in the graphic novel market. It's not a bad thing, just unusual in my experience. Obviously writing for comics req......more

Goodreads review by George (Abandoned Places) on July 25, 2009

Omega: The Unknown isn't badly done, but it suffers from "Squid in the Mouth" Syndrome. If you don't know what that means, look here ([URL not allowed]), under Part Two: Paragraphs and Prose Structure. This graphic novel gets three stars because there's lots of stuff to like.......more

Video review: [URL not allowed] Its head occasionally wanders a little bit too close to its bottom, but Omega's still an amazing reflection on the superhero genre, and on the dynamics of power and oppression in today's society. With robots! Pew pew!......more
