Bullet Review:

After reading the nearly non-stop drug high of "The Goldfinch", I so didn't want to read about the acid trip of these guys. How did they get away with this much mayhem?! And goat f$&@er appearing to declare himself the villain and nemesis of Marcus? What?

I just think this genre of "kids go to special school" has passed me by - along with enough teen angst to soak a tub.

I didn't mind the art and the story was more interesting in the middle. Oh, and it's nice to see such diversity in the cast, even if all the women were stereotypes.

I doubt I'll read volume 2, unless my coworker finds that one for me too.

On a side note, I have no clue why I didn't like this when so many of my friends did. Sorry guys :/

The visuals and slow place of the story wasn't enticing at all. Lost interest about 20% in.

It’s awesome if you’ve seen the show but there are some things that are different. They actually make Lex more  likable in the tv show but he’s mostly just a driving point for the plot in the books.
