It keeps its cynical view of police brutality and the uselessness of bureaucracy to the point of out-and-out corruption in the highest ranks of America's first line of defense and ties it all into a in a cliff hanger you won't see coming.

This issue will leave you wanting more. I can't wait for issue #2.

There's something for everybody in this comic, from the gothic coffee-shop owner Dora, the lesbian librarian Tai, the OCD insomniac Hannelore and just too many others to list.

This series from Dynamite Entertainment is dark, gritty and told with a vocabulary not seen often in action comics. It's a great pick for the more linguistically incline readers. it has all thee makings of an action-mystery comic with lots of room to grow. The team that surrounds Benson seem to be the tops of their fields and I hope they get their time in the spotlight in future issues.
