I grabbed the 1st 5 issues of the 1st arc, and wow Greg Rucka killed it with his writing. He always writes great material, and this was no exception a great read. The art by Leandro Fernandez art works perfect for the style of the story. 9 out of 10 and can't wait for the 2nd arc in a few months. The tpb is a must buy.

The tension he builds as the main "villain" unfolds his plans is fantastic and keeps the reader hooked very well. Even if some of the twists and turns are a little bit cliché. The art reminds me a ton of Steve Dillon especially his work on Preacher which I absolutely love. The only gripe I have with the art is in some of more
