Don't read this.

It changes hands at Volume 19 and becomes something different entirely. Kirkman was busy with the Walking Dead TV series and didn't have time to continue.

Not being a big super hero comics fan, I picked up on the similarities to Spider-Man and some other lesser known super heroes (lesser known by me, but probably not in the super hero comics world), but I couldn't name them, their appearance as well as their powers reminiscent of multiple super hero tropes.

All in all I got this because it was new, because the back story and the story archs are just being created, there's not a high barrier of entry as if I were to begin reading Spidey...or Venom, or Spawn (who consequently I was reminded of by reading the other reviews). I'm glad I did. I have volume 2 on my desk ready to read next.

3.5 ⭐️- Interesting premise, but definitely gives Venom vibes. I downloaded volume 2 on KU so we’ll see how it turns out

This character is clearly meant to be a Spawn knock-off, and as such it's pretty decent. By combining Spawn with a hefty dollop of Venom and a touch of Preacher, they've managed to come up with a fairly interesting take that's both familiar and somewhat fresh at the same time. I would've preferred that it take longer for the guy to master his powers, but the secret agent subplot is intriguing enough to forgive that.
