    With another backup story that is just so tonally different that I couldn't get into it, the main part of Blue Book is once again a strong work. I really liked the pacing and approach to it that gives it space to breathe and unfold without forced tension – even with the abduction. The script isn't minimalist but economical while the artwork is striking and engaging throughout. I really like this and hope it has something significant to say by the end because the setup for it is thoroughly engaging. Read Full Review
