I think it is more a 3.5 star kinda book then a 3 stars.
In this world imaginary friends are real~ and sometimes causing trouble. Therefore there is an agency to keep them in line. We follow two of those agents in a little, fun and colorful story. I greatly enjoyed the artwork and loved the colorful style. It wasn't a very deep story but entertaining all the same.
I'm glad i read it. Fun little read!

This is a really fun concept: imaginary friends are real, apparently from another dimension, and sometimes go rogue. Enter the I.M.A.G.I.N.E. Agents to police them. It’s basically just Men in Black except with figments instead of aliens. Clever twist, and good fun all the way down. I can see this being a terrific TV series.
It’s really well done, with a brisk script by Brian Jones and amazing art by Bachan, with colors by Ruth Redmond.

Summary: Imaginary friends are real - and quite a pest sometimes. When a figment acts up, the I.M.A.G.I.N.E. agents come to clean up the mess. Six year old Elliot and his best friend Furdlgurr get wrapped up in a wayward figment master plan, and it's up to the I.M.A.G.I.N.E. agents to save them.
What I liked:
- This is so cute! I love the drawings of the figments, and the contrast between the fantasy-like figments and the stark agents
- The feel reminds me very much of Men in Black, and I love Men in Black
- Can I get three cheers for useful female characters? There are still plenty of miles to cover in the graphic novel genre for gender equality, and Imagine Agents show that you can have female characters that have actual agency within the plot without it having to draw away attention or lower credibility of the story.
- Well-rooted in pop and geek culture
- Eluded some sniggers from grumpy old me
What I didn't like:
- Although this comic looks colourful and cuddly, it's not appropriate for children because the language (although clean) is quite complicated
- Imagine Agents made fun of a lot of clichés, but didn't manage to completely separate itself from them
Verdict: A super fun, sweet and exciting comic that I recommend to everyone that loves cuteness and Men in Black.
