Of all the graphic novels I have ever read this is the most perfectly paced of them all, I think. It’s definitely in the top five. It moves perfectly, little about it feels rushed or abnormal which is a problem I encounter often in graphic novels.
The plot is engaging, the characters are cool. I am obsessed with Erica, she’s interesting and compelling and cool as heck.
I could go on forever about the art. There are so, so many good panels that I just had to stare at for a moment, the flow is perfect. The color and shading are everything.
I recommend this for anybody considering a dark, quick read with a fascinating world that you are bound to be pulled into.
