There is a new drug on the streets, only for the rich and wealthy people. But it is a drug that links you to the supernatural - and that is a problem. D.E.A. Agent Summer finds herself joining forces with a strange agent from a Spanish agency. She has strange powers and affirms to be the same daughter of the Moon!
Is this a good title? Yes. Is it one I would voluntarily read again? Yes. Does it have a few issues - of course, but I suspect they're nothing more than teething ones. At the moment, I will give the title an above average score - but suspect that it will be able to achieve a higher grade in a few issues as it moves away (but not too much) from the Whedon comparisons and into more original territory.

The art by Sergi San Julian has a nice look. It definitely feels different than a comic produced in the US which is part of what I liked about it. This first issue was heavy on setup and a bit light on action and even intermediate resolution points so I graded it a bit lower, but I am looking forward to upcoming issues as the story kicks into gear.

Overall, this books positive points outweigh its negative ones and the story, setting, artwork and the potential all those ingredients, combined, present should make it worth your while, provided you have an extra $4 laying around somewhere. Read Full Review
Hopefully this weak story serves as a platform for American publishers to get a whiff of the good stuff that Sergi San Julian can serve. Somebody throw him a line and give him a well written book to work on. Read Full Review
Xavier Morell's work is exactly in the paranormal crime genre defined by The X-Files and Hellboy. The two leads, Lunita and Ms. Fillion, are likable enough. The plot introduces a drug ring surrounding mermaid tears but it never really gets going. The art is what keep this book from really succeeding, though. Read Full Review
