A masterpiece of the comic book medium. So clear and understandable, yet layered with subtext and intrigue. Every character is memorable and identifiable, the tone and pacing are perfectly in the middle between too much and too little, able to be just enough. And of course, the wonderful blend of art and writing to create sequences and moments impossible with either alone. This is why I love comics.
