It was so depressing and I'm feeling nervous today. I just wanted to finish it, and I was interested in the history of how Mega City One came about, so I kept with it. Very uneven for me; some parts were fascinating and some were less engaging for me. The art wasn't my favorite, either.
pleh. Guy carries off one well-planned crime as a teen, that makes him a master of hand-to-hand combat 20 years later? Vile and gratuitous in every way.

Will the galaxy's most feared bounty hunter succeed? The volume features a second short story where Fett f...
I read this book pretty much in one sitting, even though I was intending on reading only part of it. It is a very gripping and engaging account. The simple line art matches the gritty style of the story very well. I have not seen the movie that was made of this, but I think I would like to see it ou...
