5.0

I keep an eye on Remender because he has a habit of taking a generic premise and spinning it into something weird and good.

Here we have a school for assassins - nothing new, been done before and high school is pretty deadly to start with.

Remender, Craig and Loughridge turn it into something angry and honest. It feels real, despite the premise and it has a very strong visual identity. The book is pulsing with life and snarling with death.
