 There was enough to enjoy about this book to increase my interest in the series, and the art really is gorgeous in a way that modern comics can't figure out how to replicate. Still, the story loses some element to really keep pulling you back in, and it might be because of the characters. They are remarkably flat.

If this is as good as this body of comics gets, I'm somewhat worried. The pieces are here to build a fascinating science fiction/superhero mixture. I don't have much confidence in it actually getting to the point where it fulfills that potential.
