This was probably one of my favorite works by Brain Wood. Funny, coming from Massive, which I didn't like, to this, which I loved.

So Briggs is a political warfare story about Grace taking over the Briggs land after her husband ends up in jail. Right off the bat she tells him she'll be taking over and he tells her she's fucked. This begins a hit on Grace, who has a three kids who she wants to work with her. So it's basically a political warfare and it gets even more nasty as the story progresses beyond Brigg's land. Death, betrayal, and racism all are in one title.

Good: Loved the family feel. I also think the idea of making all these characters shitty in some way is really interesting. The betrayals and fights are great. Oh, and the ending leaves this one building up to something horrible but I can't wait.

Bad: Some of the pacing issues in issue 3-4 are there.

Overall this was fantastic. Around a 4.5 for me. Because of some of the pacing issues I'll hit it with a 4 but this is worth checking out for sure.
