This is an absolutely brilliant series. Mark Millar has definitely done it again [like there was ever any doubt]. I knew very little about the book when I picked it up. It came so highly recommended by the owner of one of the many stores I frequent, so I picked up the variant cover of the first issue. I got it home and was blown away and hooked by the end of the second page. So much so that I went out and bought the other two covers of the issue, as I plan to do for all six issues of this book. Anyone growing up as a comic lover in the 80's can definitely appreciate this wonderful story line.
