Top reviews from the United States

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2012
I picked up the book after seeing a couple of good reviews on the individual issues and the alien/UFO concept seemed interesting. The issues reviews I did see though, were at the end of the arc. I don't think the series is as amateur and bad as the other reviewer makes it out to be though. I thought the story had a few interesting twists and turns and I did think the author fleshed out the characters a bit to make you feel for them, but as the other reviewer said, I think there were a few too many characters to juggle. The potential of the series really starts to show at the end (issues 4 and 5) and peak my interest. So it did leave me interested to see where things go from where the trade ended.

Besides the story being a little slow at first, my biggest gripe was with the artwork. Usually I love cartoon-ey stuff like Rob Guillory's work in Chew, or Chris Bachalo's art from Wolverine and the X-Men, so I was excited to see another cartoon-ey style utilized in another series. But I think it was pushed too much, a little more detail and textures would've done wonders for the book.

So overall, an ok book with a good bit of potential, and I'm interested to see where it goes. Also, a little sidenote, the issue covers by Dan Duncan (TMNT) are fantastic!

I had heard great things about this new comic. I was specially excited about the fact that it tackled the UFO/ET phenomenon. Boy was this disappointing! theres way to many characters but the main problem is that they have no developement I never cared or fell in love with any of them. The story jumps around way to much and doesn't make any sense. This new comic genre could have been a masterpiece if it was executed by the right writer and artist team. Oh yeah the art is just as lame as the writing(tries to hard to be like CHEW). Big time FAIL!!!

Reason for Reading: The publisher's summary caught my attention.

This starts off pretty lame. Rather vulgar and juvenile with no real plot for the first three issues then something happens and things start to get interesting. A plot develops from a couple of twists and the book ends with a cliffhanger that leaves one wanting to find out what happens next. The illustration is cartoonish and adds to the non-seriousness of the "drunk college guy"-type of humour and language. This is not one I'd recommend running out to buy but if you happen across it, meh. I'd probably read volume 2. but I'm in no hurry. My rating would actually be a 2.5 if half stars were allowed.

This was a fun change of pace from other comics. When it comes to really having diversity Image is winning. What started as a comedy shows more so the bonds of people in a bad situation where nobody believes them as they look for hope with a couple twists.Where Xenoholics shines is really fleshing out the characters in a short period of time. This is about people more then it is about aliens. Although it does have plenty of awesome aliens in it. The art does look "cartoonish" but it really fits the story very nicely.

If you're looking for something pretty unique and a fun read give this a chance.
