Eh… Not the worst one in the pile. But very messy, confusing and weird.
And worst of all, completely forgettable. I will illustrate: I read it yesterday before going to bed. Today, I couldn’t remember whether I read it. Then I was sure I didn’t. I opened the file again and realized I’m on the last page. I backtracked through the entire book to remember what I had read. Remembered. Closed the file. Now I have a very vague recollection again.
The illustrations are very neutral, because I neither liked them much, nor disliked them in any particular way. The story, as mentioned, is nothing special. It, just like the illustrations, is just there, without provoking any specific emotion. In other words, mediocrity at its best.

A very bare bones first issue. The art was cool at times but really simplistic in other panels. The story can go in an interesting direction but the amount of narrative in this first issue was so small. Basically, aliens are on Earth, and they are scared that we will come to their planet, and destroy their planet like we are doing to ours. We, Earthlings, are going to be the invaders. This issue though just covers the one alien falling to Earth. It is kind of a "get them before they get us" type of attitude from these aliens. I'm a bit confused on the timeline here. I'll check out the next issue but so far, I'm not to impressed.
