On Apr 15, 2009 10:59 PMNo Hero, Warren Ellis. The art is spectualar(ly disturbing) and the plot is engrossing. Only thing is, the 7-issue run isn't complete yet. but, REALLY REALLY GOOD.

On Dec 16, 2008 9:31 AMHmm, is this issue something I can pick up with no prior experience and understand what's going on, or do I need to wait? Good article, and I'd like to give it a shot, but don't know if I should do it with this issue or not.
