2018 review:
Interesting story of men using animals as slaves. The drawings were a bit too graphic for my taste. But cool concept nevertheless.

unning on the familiar sci-fi trope of science run amok of morality We3takes three household pets and turns them in to cybernetic killing machines designed to be used in the battefields. With enhanced intelligence and cybernetic suits the three animals, still at the core just simple animals, are equal parts terrifying and heartrending. Art duty rests on the shoulders of semi-frequent Morrison collaborator Frank Quietly. I’m not a huge fan of Quietly’s art, it doesn’t really mesh with my own expectations, but his style here (particularly with the humans being antagonists and our protagonists being animals) serves the story well and his attention to detail when it comes to the technology used in the three animals is nothing short of stunning. If you are an animal lover this is a story will definitely touch and definitely disturb you.

When I first read it, I thought it was mediocre. I'm a sucker for animals and I didn't really even care what happened to them. Fast forward two days later, however, and I find myself thinking about it more and more. Fantastic book.

Le puse 3 estrellas porque el arte esta muy chingón. En cuanto a la historia no se si me gusto o no. La historia va bien, te engancha un poco y justo cuando estás pensando que viene algo más: Fin. Me quede con la sensación de que me falto un tomo o algo.

Well, that was hecking sad. And graphic.

I think I liked it. I struggled with the lack of dialogue, and the characters seemed a little flat in places, and whatever happened to the parrot? And all in all I really wanted more of the Homeward Bound narrative, and less of the Independence Day narrative, but all in all I liked it.

A sad, but lovely story. The characterization of the animals was both endearing and accurate.
