I have never read anything Wild Storm, WildCat whatever it used to be. I picked this up actually for the art, but so glad I did.

So Warren Ellis takes characters that were created in the 90's and kind of revamps or remakes them. IN doing so we have a few different organizations all going at each other. They all feel top secret military/government shit. However, the story becomes to go different directions with different characters. The story really opens with a woman looking for money to fund her project, a guy comes flying out a window, she rescues him by turning into a mecha type suit (think Iron-man) and then...well shit gets hairy and more and more characters come in and all somehow connect.

Good: Jon Davis-Hunt has some of the best art I've seen. I LOVED Clean Room's art and this is no different. He has some of the best fight scenes I've seen, in perticular issue 5, and shines through here. Also the dialog is pretty tightly done and each person feels like they have their own voice. While not every character connects a lot of them do and by the end I wanted more.

Bad: It's a slower start. It's not always exciting and honestly takes its time to get going. Also some characters are pretty boring, luckily it's a large cast so even if one or two is boring you have plenty to enjoy.

Overall this is a very interesting and fun first volume. I love the world Warren is building and the art by Jon is fantastic. I can't wait to read more and at the moment it's a 3.5 but I'ma bump it to a 4 just for the art alone!
