This is a story about anger, the kind that eats away at you and changes you if not dealt with. The kind that’s left to fester in our youth of today with few resources to help fix it. This is a complex story not only about where we draw the line with actions that are justifiable, but also where we draw the line of forgiveness and redemption.

Simon Spurrier, a remarkable storyteller, is also incredibly sympathetic to each of his character's journeys. He slowly unravels each character's history and motivations in powerful and emotional passages. It’s difficult not to become invested in this short series. It’s difficult not to want to think about it and talk about it, because it really does go there. Plus, Wildgoose’s art and May’s coloring is absolutely stellar. There are images that are stirring in the power they hold.

Spurrier, over the last couple of years, has put together some incredible series with deep-seated social issues peppered in. This is not only particularly good sci-fi, but he uses the sci-fi to dissect an aspect of humanity that can’t go on the way that it is.
