Its easy to love a mystery at the end of its first chapter. Theres so much possibility for it to be so cool in so many different ways. Given the nature of mystery, things could go in a lot of different directions that could steer the story away from its true potential. Everything seems to be going in the right direction, though. And given the fact that Charlamagne Tha God is associating himself with this one on such a high-profile level, theres a really good chance that this one is going to be worth the investment in the long-run.

Really good but such a short read.
It's a rather paint-by-numbers story so far but maybe it'll mix it up going forward. Not bad but nothing special either. The art is meh, the writing is serviceable. I'll probably give it one more issue to grab me.
I was hoping for a narrative at least as compelling as the testimonies we’ve been following in the Diddy trials. Instead, what we received feels more like a Black Dahlia mystery in the way it presents Los Angeles using old Hollywood motifs, or perhaps it’s Cowan and Sienkiewicz art that gives the work its classic noir aesthetic. Although executed beautifully, this is not the dark hip-hop tale I was promised. Furthermore, the script at this point feels uninspired and doesn’t even keep pace with the world invented by conspiracy theorists on YouTube and entertainment blogs.
