Review

Rating: 9

It was interesting and I’m not a huge comic fan but I did find the story compelling enough to read through it. I also liked their use of Utilitarianism into the story, I also liked the fact that the superhero model wasn’t conventional in a way that they didn’t have super powers but ordinary humans who decided to be extradonary.

You truly appriciate the whole book (or 12 part series) I think that you have to put youself in the mindset of when the book was written (1986)

An otherwise good read not for everyone by virtue of the fact that it is a graphic novel.
