Missiles for Islamabad

Insiders (énumération française) #1.3

by Jean-Claude Bartoll

Najah Cruz has infiltrated the entourage of Sam Nachez, head of the international organised-crime ring known as the High Council. She's an insider, working directly for the White House. And she's been cut off from her bosses. While corrupt forces in Washington are trying to identify her and kill Project Insiders, Najah goes to Pakistan with Nachez to arrange the sale of French cruise missiles to the Pakistani Air Force. But not everyone in Nachez's inner circle is convinced of her loyalty, and Pakistan is a troubled country in its own right.

Enjoyable

I don't really get this story. It doesn't make much sense to me. Part of the problem is I personally have a hard time telling people apart in this. A lot of the characters look the same, and also I have a hard time understanding who is talking, and what they are really talking about.

Nonetheless I still like it, mainly on the strength of the art. Also it feels original compared to most other graphic novels. Najah is like a female James Bond. Interesting concept.

Tom Clancy pretensions with Mack Bolan delivery. Way too much exposition, clumsy panel layouts, a rambling story and no-hum artwork. Just a mess.
