I love Quinn's sick, cynical writing and Vigil's technique makes me just want to cut my own hands off. The original Faust series started great and just got better. Shame the subsequent 'Wrath 777' issues aren't listed here, as they're even better.

I’m torn on this comic. The art is fantastic, and while I think it has good characterization at points, it sometimes wallows in how dark it wants to be. There are also a few portions of text that are written in the reporter’s handwriting that is hard to read.

Take the long lessons learned from the Watchmen mixed with the indie sensibilities of the black and white invasion/Turtle comics, with the worst excesses of the Image Revolution and you have this comic.

The Crow meets Wolverine. Dated yet awesome art wedded to cynical and indulgent pap.

This series is dark, violent and often perverse. A great series.

This one was not a child friendly comic, it is x rated. But it was good for what it was.
