This story was very unique and intriguing. Five kids wake up one day and suddenly they have all these knowledge of the world and it was really such a promising premise. They tricked their way away from the FBI and everyone has their own distinct and different gifts apart from it all. I had a really fun time reading this book and I was a bit sad that it ended so abruptly. I wonder what will happen next in this story and the extent of their gifts as well as the history behind it. This book was fun, interesting and such an enjoyable read. I really look forward to finding out what may happen next to them.

On an otherwise normal day, five teens are suddenly hit with tinnitus followed by omniscience. Well, up to a point. They hold all of the knowledge that people can read but don't know information that doesn't appear on the web (or, ostensibly, in books.) All are teens in the United States and four of them are quickly taken in by the Department of Health but there are other entities, including a very shady-seeming FBI, who would also like to have them under their thumbs.
A very nice beginning to what seems like it will be a fun series. The characters, even in such a short book, are starting to be sketched out and readers will probably empathize with at least one of them. There is a nice diversity including (gasp) one teen who isn't quite a US citizen (though his omniscience does cause the States to claim him quickly.)

Opinions are my own

I thought the story was just okay. It was hard to be emotionally invested in any of the characters and so much of what happens doesn't hold to suspend my belief.

After a long time I read a graphic novel and definitely enjoyed it. It will be a perfect book for teenagers wanting to read something mysterious and action packed.. A bunch of teenagers discovers they have some mysterious powers and begin on their journey. I would definitely recommend it and also waiting eagerly for the next volume.

What would you do if you were a 15-year-old who suddenly got access to knowledge without having to study? Well for one person, it led to a contemplation of suicide until it turned out that there were others that shared her condition. The FBI wanted to take them over, but The Health Department got there first. Then there are the Doomsday Library folks trying to do something that may be sinister, may be benign, but definitely mysterious. And then a fifth young adult tries to make her way to the compound, the fun begins! It will be interesting to see where this series goes.

A fun, quick read with an interesting take on the superhero genre. Not a whole lot of depth, as most of the story just felt like a set-up for future volumes. This being said, I am definitely intrigued. The premise and characters so far hold promise of great series.

This Graphic Novel fell flat for me. It's a 72 page graphic novel and the first half is spent introducing the characters who I end up having no connection to either of them. The art style was cool, I'll give it that. But the author's political opinions shine heavy in this graphic novel and they annoyed me to no end.

This was a really great take on the teenagers get superpowers genre. I loved all the characters and the story was pretty good too! Overall I think this would be a great book if you like superhero comics.

The Omniscients is a very cute and creative take on the superhero genre. The art is very enjoyable and I like that the characters are all diverse and creative. The bond they have is the sweetest. The idea of the story is good as well. I like that the kids all have brain power, rather than physical powers, even if the origin of them isn’t explained. I think this is a fun start to what will probably be a great series. I look forward to reading more in the future!

3.5 stars rounded up.

I don't read a ton of graphic novels, but I'm always on the lookout for ones that are unique and will take me down an unexpected path. The Omniscients does just that, it follows a group of teenagers who suddenly gain all the knowledge in the world. I really liked how they all reacted to their new found powers quite differently. I was also amazed how quickly the world learned about them and what an asset/threat they might be. The art was gorgeous and there were even a few laughs. Would definitely pick up the next chapter of this story if given the opportunity.

Five kids wake up one morning with ringing in the ears and the entirety of the world's knowledge in their heads. Know they're wanted by two groups of people. Who are the good guys and who are the bad guys and how did they get this power?
I loved this book it was a great start and has potential to be an engaging series. The kids are a diverse group and each of the kids has their own unique charm and personality.
*This review is based on a copy I received from NetGalley in exchange for an honest opinion.

The art was beautiful. There wasn't so much detail that you get lost in them but so enough to really drive it home.

I enjoyed the story. 5 kids get seemingly infinite knowledge, and have the FBI on their backs worried they are going to be a liability to the nation's secrets.

But there are also other characters that are hoping they can be the link to uncover other information lost to history.

I would be super interested in checking out more of this story

An exciting fast paced, action packed graphic novel of five teenagers who wake up one day with all the knowledge in the world. I loved their close friend group and how well they got along together. I read this in one sitting and really enjoyed. Cant wait to read the second volume and find out more about their mysterious powers

The Omniscients is about a group of teens suddenly acquiring the skill of knowledge. The art in this comic had bright coloring and a diverse cast of characters. So far, the series presents the teens (new heroes), the government, and scientific groups in pursuit. The characters have their own personalities and fit well together to form a new superhero group.

The plot of this graphic novel is really engaging: 5 teenagers wake up one morning with the knowledge of the whole world in their head. Four of them are taken quickly by the FBI, but they realise that not everybody is on their side when they have difficulties uniting with the fifth member.

I found the story difficult to read. The scenes kept cutting between different locations and characters without warning, which interrupted the flow of the plot. I enjoyed the characters, but the story was too short to really learn anything about them or form an emotional connection with them. The best part of this story is the plot and the mystery about how they got the powers, but it isn't the main focus of the story and so I wasn't as engaged with the plot as I could have been.

Overall, this graphic novel sets up an interesting mystery, but the way the plot jumps around and the lack of focus on the mystery and characters make it an averagely interesting read.

I liked this one; five random teenagers in New York all wake up one morning apparently knowing everything there is to know. They soon learn that not everyone can be trusted and they might have to run for their lives. I liked the teens, like that there was a good diversity among them, I just wish we'd spent more time with them. This comic is quite short so we didn't really get to know most of them as well as I wish we did. Maybe in the future volumes, we'll learn more about them. This first volume is a good start to a hopefully intriguing series!

I really enjoy the premise of this. It's fun to see a different take on a sort of superpowers story.
The characters were all immediately likeable and I enjoyed their bond though I wish that there was a little more time spent carving out each character's personality.
The action/adventure aspects were cool but I enjoyed them just hanging around the house together as well.
I feel like there is a lot of room for where this story can go and I will definitely be checking out more issues as they release.
This is a perfect comic for tweens but I also think that older people (like me) can enjoy it as well.

It was an okay reading. Nothing spectacular and borderline on the ordinary, it sets a setup for the plot on a big scene for the next instalments but this first one feels kind of flat. It's cool that random teenagers get the power of infinite knowledge, but nothing happens in this first volume. Really.
It has a cliffhanger but would it be enough to make me keep reading? We'll see

The Omniscients is a comic about 5 teenagers who wake up one day and find that they possess world knowledge, in other words: they know everything about everything! In Part One we see the characters come together and recognise their powers.
I found this comic so super cute! The colour palette used was gorgeous and brought the story to life. The illustration style was appealing and helped bring out the personalities of the characters. Speaking of, each character clearly had their own uniqueness and were all so loveable.
It’s been a while since I’ve read any comics/graphic novels, so it was a nice refresher to read this in between novels!
The story was easy to follow along with and I can definitely imagine this being turned into a TV show similar to The Umbrella Academy. It has that potential.
The only downfall of this comic, in my opinion, was the strange way that the scenes would cut in. The setting would change for 2 or 3 panels and then cut straight right back to the previous. I felt as though this were a little unnecessary and disturbed the flow slightly.
Apart from that, I really enjoyed this comic, and I’m looking forward to more being released in the future! 🤩

2.5 Meh...All I can say is that this was a descent setup for what may become an interesting story. The cast of characters is varied and diverse and the premise of teens being suddenly and unexplainably imbued with all-knowing knowledge is cool. Nothing happens in this installment though. It is merely an introduction to the chart and a week one at that.
