Archeologists of the Impossible, trying to discover the world's hidden secrets of the 20th century? Sign me up.
I love the concept and our three main characters are fantastic, grumpy, and mysterious (sometimes all at once).
The art is not my preferred style but I really enjoyed it ('it's superhero comic lite') and some of the images (particularly of the multiverse snowflake thingy) were stunning.
Be aware that because it was published in 1999 the comic does have some outdated and offensive terminology/vocabulary.
Definitely looking forward to continuing the series.
