Visually, this comic book rules. The characters look consistent and have similar recognizable facial features throughout. Now, I’m not a fan of Larroca reusing some of the panels and blowing them in some shots as the line thickness loses its impact and it doesn’t make for a nicer picture. If he’s going to reuse material, he should at least adjust the line width.
Rating: 8.5/10
