Great artwork, great writing, great story. This is definitely one to pick up.
Explosive action and great art work.
Loving the writing in this series. Like the first issue you are left wanting to see more but I appreciate that they are taking their time to develop Aric as a character. Also, the art is top notch. Cary Nord has a great style that resonates with this series. Seeing Eden for the first time really has immersed me even more in the story. The third issue can't get here quick enough for me as there is no way that the third issue isn't going to start exploring Aric's relationship with his new "skin".
Absolutely digging this book. The story and writing is top notch! I was only slightly less impressed with the pencils this go around...it just seemed even less detailed. Still, not enough to detract from a must read!
