The characters were good. They all seen to inhabit this gray area of morality that I like to read about. But I definitely need more time with them to decided with ones I like and with ones I don't. Also, the relationship between the main characters was enjoyable and realistic, and that is something I don't get to say often.
The premise isn't revolutionary, but all the worbuilding elements/design of the characters and settings that acompany it are great. And I love me some intertwined plotlines that all culminate in one thing at the end.
My only real complainty is the misogynistic air all throughout the grafic novel. Not in a way that serves the plot/worldbuilding, but in the way where you can clearly tell this was written by a man. All the adult woman are naked/half-naked at least once, sometimes for no reason at all, Alana, the female protagonist, gives birth and then imediatly gets up like nothing happened, etc. Those are the kinda of thing that can take you out of the story once you start to notice. I do hope that this chances in the next volume, but I'm not to confident.
