This is my very first experience with anything Red 5 and I am happy I gave The Abyss a chance. The story pretty much starts out with two aliens named Zen and Jenna crash landing onto earth and being taken in by the military for experiments. As usual the government takes there technology and learns from it.

Story wise the series (issues 1-3 or 4) develops slowly like a nicely paced Seinfeld episode or a poorly paced Buffy if you know what I mean. A Rorschach/Deep Throat mash up arrives to drive the story by revealing that Eric's mom is in fact a well known superheroine and while I had some difficulty following this shadowy figure's motivation, the big reveal at the end of issue #3 makes it obvious that this will be explained in the next issue. An issue I'll be waiting for with bated breath. But you'll have to excuse me as I'm off to track down previous issues of Abyss and I'd definitely recommend you do as well! Read Full Review
