Cover art plus advise from my local comic book shop (The Darl Knight) result in most of my comic purchases including this one. I like intrigue in my stories as much as the next person but this quickly turned into confusion which for a #1 in a series is quite off putting. The storyline and narrative are unclear at times and I found myself frowning as I tried to decode the message. Some of the artwork is pretty cool and detailed and I quite like a black and white comic when it suits the mood which due to the evidently dark and twisted plot it does here, I’ll probably give #2 a punt but if it does nothing to clear up the fog in the narrative then only the most persistent or super intelligent are likely to persevere. Bit disappointed.

Loving the clean illustrations and inking tones in what is a pretty gritty urban, magic story. The back story of the main character is swiftly dealt with adding an instant depth and perspective of empathy which provides the hook.
