Ratings and reviews

Hope story picks up and starts going somewhere soon, hate wasting my time, this book is HIGHLY POLITICAL... WHICH SUCKS. Author has an agenda obviously.

When house of cards meets the watchmen - this is an amazing graphic novel with twists and turns, mixed with a near living back story will keep you wanting more !

Art and content are both good.
