This is a comic that knows what it wants to be and does that very well. Is that thing totally in line with what we all thought this book was going to be from the outset? Slightly! Is that a reason to skip this chapter? Not a chance! Read Full Review
Hayden Sherman rocks.
What a solid book. The art by Sherman is great. The story is ok, but it's just so elevated visually.
I have been really loving this series. Glad I decided to use some kindle points to buy the first few issues. So worth it, both in story and art. I must say that I really enjoyed the first arc a bit more. The two issues of this arc have been decent, but the shock twist at the end of this issue I saw coming a mile away in previous issue #4 (PAGE #17 PANEL-3).
It's still a decent issue, but the obviousness of the gag that lead me to predicting the "SHOCK REVEAL" before it happened definitely left me cold.
Still love this series, and really looking forward to reading the next issue.
