“A richly realized creative world. . . an immediately engaging central character. . . strong, confident story-telling.” – ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY/Shelf Life

Finally…did this skip a month?
I think there was some kind of delay…but it’s hard to tell these days. With all the books that double ship, my sense of “monthly” is getting a bit skewed.
Seems like they’re doing 3 issues, then skip a month and then another 3 issues. I missed it in May’s solicitations, which supports this theory. As long as the awesomeness continues they can skip a month here or there no probs.
9 issues in 12 months, 3 a quarter….works for me for the solid consistency.
Cool! Another suprise for this week!! This will be a very good comic book week, lots of great comics are out. This has been one heck of a good series and it really is something different.

Love that cover.
Cover is very cool
This is a very interesting series. I can’t wait to read more.
to be honest the cover is better then the content im still waiting for this to get better! dont get me wrong its a ok book so far… the future speak aside (id like it a lot more if that was left out) it is a intrested story but im getting close to dropping so we will see how it pans out over the next issues..
what a strange tale. it continues to hold my attention for ransom.
Trivia time…
Who is the person on the cover?
Well, I think I was confussed pretty much for the first time thru this series, I could not tell heads or tales here. I don’t know if I was to tired when I read it or what, it just lost me. Can someone please re-cap me on what we are really reading here, i really am lost and the first three issues seemed pretty easy to understand and now I am lost.
