This was really creative in pretty much every aspect. The premise itself is an interesting twist on an old formula, and the presentation makes it where you're seeing something that would normally be reserved for a live action/animation hybrid but instead its just Dave Wachter doing a very cool blend of different art styles, and also delivering some gorgeous colors here. The book takes a surprisingly serious approach to its inherently wacky premise, but there's an undercurrent of good humor to the everything. It manages to feel grounded but also fantastical given what happens in the issue. I've been looking forward to this one for a while and it didn't disappoint. This is a comic worth picking up.
