myself flipping back a couple of pages to see if I had somehow
missed something.
It tells the story with the minimum of fuss, but also with
a certain flair that makes me wonder “ if this is what he
is capable of while working within the tight perimeters of
a licence then what is he capable of given a complete free
hand?”. Time will tell, but from what I have seen so far the
future is bright, and we may well have another Miller, Brubaker,
Bendis, Ellis on our hands.
On to the art.
The first thing that strikes me about Paul’s art is how
shinny it is, it as if its lit up with hidden lights. I could
have sworn that it would glow in the dark, but it doesn’t.
I tried it!
The art is very cool, and doesn’t seem to lend anything from
anyone else, although I am sure others will be lending from
Paul before long.
As a sum up, the whole comic comes across as a labour of
love rather than a page rate grind, and the only gripe I had
was the it all ended to soon. I want more, damm it, more!
Now on to a score.
Bearing in mind that this is a first published work and that
it is working within the perimeters of a licence I am going
to give it a solid…
9/10
