Great big thing that uses its characters well. Brainiac is interesting here we see new sides to a lot of players.

Ah ok. I can see this was from the Ichi the Killer magaka now. Really interesting, unpredictable and occasionally a bit mucky

I really like how this doesn’t blink when it comes to horror. Moves fast and supports that with character and an interesting world. Great comics!
