The Few by Sean Lewis
1.0

This one pains me because I read the opening and loved the words Sean Lewis was saying. He obviously has passion for this project, he worked hard to make it, and I admire that. Saying that...this didn't work for me at all.

The sketechy art brings you into a broken world. It starts off confusing and basically stays that way till the end. We have a woman protecting a baby and then gas mask people show up. Once we get past that it basically just becomes a big cat and mouse game with killers, evil people, who are mostly just nameless. Then we get into the backstory and...yeah.

Good: The idea of it.

Bad: The art is pretty bad. It's a style, but as most here have said, it's pretty awful style for this type of story. If the story itself was easier to follow and made sense I could enjoy the art. But with bad art + confusing story + weak dialog it all mixes into a big old blah. I couldn't get behind this title at all because I gave no shits about ANY character.

Overall this was pretty big disappointment. I wish I could like it more because I feel Sean was trying but I just could NOT get into it at all. I'll still check out future projects by Sean though!
