Thoughts…This series is not at all what I thought it was going to be at all, even now after reading all four issues my brain is still spinning. The first issue makes it all seem so normal and like this is a tale of a small town hero going about his business. A vigilante that just wants to make his bit of the world a little safer for the community around him, which in essence that is what the book seems to be about. It even mentions doing the little things to make the world a better place and then the whole thing flips on its head and becomes so much bigger and mind bending…

This is a great story made up of smaller stories that all converge and become something more. It has that slice of life element for its main cast of characters. We see how small choices and events can spiral into something bigger, cause and effect. We get glimpses into the things that shaped the people in the story, their wins and failures, what drives them to do what they do. I really like this element of the story, seeing the everyday small moments and the connections being made along the way. That's what I thought the whole story was going to be with the Pedestrian being the element that binds them all together, intertwining their lives and creating a story of the town. While this is a big part of the overall story, there is another layer to the whole book that takes things to a mythical or even cosmic level, you will have to check the book out to learn more though as I don't want to spoil that side of things.

The illustration is great, there is a lot of interesting imagery that goes with the story. That imagery plays a major part in the story. There are a lot of symbols and signs hidden in the panels that you might not notice at first but they are there. I like the design of the Pedestrian, a simple white suit, I assume to show that he is on the side of light and purity. As the series continues there are other characters that are introduced and one in particular looks really cool, the perfect opposite to the Pedestrians ideals.

I really like this series, there is so much more to it than meets the eye. It does a great job of getting into the characters and showing their world to us and in their inner monologues there are some really meaningful, thought provoking bits of dialogue. But not only that it gives this whole other side to it that is so out of this world it is crazy and metaphoric, it really does get into your brain in a way you wouldn’t expect. I would give this a 9 out of 10 for sure. This series is really hard to explain without spoilers so can’t say too much but it needs to be read to be believed.
