The location is also one I haven’t seen used in a story like this: in a mansion in which a lot of politicians and military types have gathered to watch the kick off.

The human characters are likeable, which is also a nice start. The son of a rich lawyer who does not wish to follow in his father’s footsteps, and in an endearing way and with a touch of self-deprecating sense of humor – not that whiny, roll-your-eyes type of character. And, his girlfriend who is smart with a nice helping of attitude. She feels more like the Han Solo of this story in swagger than he does, which could prove to be a very nice dynamic going forward. All in all, it’s a nice start with some interesting approaches to what could have been trite material. Considering Mitchell’s willingness to wade into new territory, the title suggests a pretty big theme moving forward.

Patrick Mulholland’s artwork is light and simple, he doesn’t overcomplicate the panels with useless information. I like it.

It’s a solid piece of work, and they currently have a Kickstarter campaign to help them produce Issues #2-6. Take a look at the first issue and watch the video. This feels like an interesting enough story to throw a few bucks at to see where it goes. As I write this, they have a mere 21 days to go.
