It takes a while until the suspense eventually builds up. Otherwise, a great cyberpunk read, but with less cyber than Neuromancer had.

The story is kind of a standard gritty revenge plot with some mystery added. The art is the truly remarkable thing here, mixing fine details and heavy brushes perfectly. The best moments are when it becomes surreal.
This series is also a modern classic of (North American) indie publishing. It's a one person project which was initially released through monthly issues (which is a whole lot of work for a single person). I'll definitely read the rest of the series.
