Very 80s, very subculture, very anti establishment, very dark. Main dude is a hispanic youth who is living on the streets when he gets recruited to join a school for assassins. He HATES the government and most societal structures. He blames them (and honestly is rather valid in blaming them) for his parents deaths and everything that befell him. His main assassin goal is to kill ronald ragean cause fuck that guy. Our little 14 year old protagonist is putting the president #1 on his revenge hitlist. The scene where they are in Vegas tripping HARD on acid is hilarious. Definitely gonna keep reading this series.
