Story was super compelling, but the art was muddled and sometimes inconsistent which only really bothered me after I put the book down. Might have been more stars if it wasn't so darn focused on a hipster-y reader. I have to say the cover was super compelling though, even if I assumed the book was about a photographer rather than a video-blogger. The latter choice was much more original, as was this whole story.

I read this in graphic novel form and all I can say is it ripped off Brian Wood's DMZ series a lot.

Inexperienced journalist thrust into a war zone in a plausible near future world at war. Yes, sounds a lot like Brian Wood's terrific series, DMZ. The comparison was hard to shake though this book has enough going for it to stand on its own. There's a lot of good satiric commentary at play here as President McCain tries to dig out of Iraq and new terrorists threats.
