Great art and cool concept. Love the idea of each Chimera having a power based on a sense. Im used to graphic novels having at least 5 or 6 issues in it, so this one only having 4 made it feel disappointingly short. I wanted more context that I feel like im used to getting in other graphic novels. I dont like collecting or reading individual comics so i do look for graphic novels that give me a reason to keep caring. Im intrigued enough by the concepts presented to buy volume 2. But realistically, if it keeps being this vague and short and it starts taking too long to get new volumes out, I may fall off it.
