We need to get this out of the way first: Williams' art is amazing. Even at this earlier, rougher, pre-Promethea stage, current artists should still be jealous of what he could do back in the day.

That said, the story's still really good! Chase is an interesting character, and it's sad that so little is seen of Johnson's plans with her. There were quite a few things at the very beginning that were set up as fodder for eventual plotlines down the road that the book was never able to get to. But it's still definitely worth it. Good stuff.

Quick impressions: I picked this up from my local public library, mostly out of curiosity, and it was worth it. This is one for libraries with graphic novel collections, especially if you already have the "usual" DC Comics fare like Batman, Superman, etc.

(Full review available on my blog soon.)

A mishmash of stories from around the DC universe centering around agent Chase. There are some excellent stories here and great artwork by Williams III, but it's overwhelmed int he end by some bad and just plain confusing or incomplete stories pulled from other titles. Many feel unfinished and a couple of totally out of place far-future bizarre stories jolted me out of the stories completely.
