    It kind of breaks my heart to give such a low rating to a book this beautiful, this bursting with energy and good intentions, in an age when too many superhero comic writers are spending all their time trying to come up with new reasons for Spider-man to fight the Green Goblin. But the fact of the matter is that this is more an outline than an actual story, giving us a whirlwind tour of a rich and detailed world but not making much of an attempt to actively engage us in it. Hickman may nominally emphasize more with Da Vinci's quest to elevate the human spirit above the rules that have been set for it, but in practice this book seems to side more with Newton's cold, clockwork vision of the universe: intricate, detailed, and inhuman.
