The artwork was good, but I didn't find the story as engaging as the past few volumes. That isn't to say that it isn't good, just not what I had come to expect. ( )

Haven't read any Ellis in a while, I forgot what I was missing. This was dark and funny, with excellent dialogue and some awesome art. The ending was kind of abrupt, but other than that this series has been really great the whole time. ( )

Art was much better than the previous volume. I could actually see what was happening on page and there was a consistency to the characters.
Unfortunately the same couldn't be said for the writing. The story made more sense than Ghost Box (but anything would) but the humour was banal and dialogue didn't fit the characters as I perceive them.
I have the next book which I will read because it seems stupid not to but I know without a shadow of a doubt this writer is not for me.

ETA: I feel bad for the artist here. The art was worth 4 stars any day of the week but the writing was so bad that it dragged the rating right down. Jimnez is a good artist. ( )

Mildly better than the last volume Ellis wrote ( )

Beautifully drawn. The ending is kind of short for all the buildup, though. ( )
