A review by mschlat
Stillwater, Volume 1: Rage, Rage by Ramon K. Perez, Chip Zdarsky
5.0
I read the first two issues in this collection and thought "Well, that's a lot of background, and the conceit is interesting...."
I read the third issue in this collection and thought "Okay, Zdarsky has clearly thought out the implications of the conceit; I'm a little invested in what's going on..."
I read the fourth and fifth issues and and thought "Holy s#!@. This is great!"
There are some weak points (primarily in how the conceit of Stillwater is hidden and the nature of the villains), but I just felt so carried along by the writing and art that those were at most minor quibbles.
