Read through the first trade, was pleasantly surpised and enjoyed it front to back. I guess the oversexed covers kinda just pushed me off jumping on originally. Still, this offering felt kinda sparce. Does the book continue to bring the nifty? Without spoilers, does it stay grounded or get more supernatural?

i think it's skippable. I had high hopes, thinking it was going to be the next Y, but it's average at best. The art is pretty poor as well now.

Its not revolutionary by any means, but its a fun, solid read.

Nice...
Considering how tbumpkins asked for a breakdown without spoilers...

The book is good - not great, but it has some great characters in it and the second story arc is pretty hardcore. :D

I've been reading the book since it started and the only real downside for me was, and still is the art, but the story is unbelievably interesting and has kept my interest since the first issue. It's pretty grounded and the whole thing with Adam's dead girlfrend's ghost, well, you COULD see it as Adam really being visited by his girlfriend's ghost, or you could just write it off as Adam losing his mind or fabricating the ghost of his girlfriend as a conscious way of coping with her dying before they did the deed. Okay, don't get mad if that would count as a spoiler.
