Wicked. Futuristic. Mayhem.
I like a solid tale involving gore, guts, and glory (see 100 Bullets, SCALPED) but this one didn't ring my blood bell. It was maximum futuristism which I appreciated, and the art/coloring was incredible. The story didn't do it for me though, and I can't describe why. The concept is rad and depressing, the art is wild and dirty - love it for that reason but the story didn't give do the justice. It was close, and circling something I was getting interested in but it never gave me the bridge to get there. So, I must move on!
