As always, Jeff gives life to every character in the series and Matt eloquently tells a maddening tale about what remains of Earth’s population clawing their way through impossible odds to survive. Every floor is joke at Earth’s expense and the eighth floor is no different.

The dungeon is driven by an increasingly insane AI televised to a universe of sadists who only want bloodshed. And yet somehow Carl, Donut, and every friend they’ve gained along the way still cling to each other. What I love is that the message is that humanity will endure, not the individuals, but the hope, honor, and love that lets people face horrors unknown together, unified.
