Disjointed, boring story.

I really wanted to like this a lot. Really....
But i could not. And that's a shame.
Altough i've read a lot of these stories (person trained to be a super ninja or something - with "Matrix" reflexes - on a revenge / self-discovery quest) - i really wanted to have of a kind of different approach / look to this type of story.
In the five numbers in this TPB you get the same story repeated several times - and the twists were not presented in a convincing manner.
The artwork was ok, but it was lacking in the more crucial scenes (specially in action ones - where i felt that was missing motion - did not got the sensation of movement in here).
So - in conclusion - it is a average comic book - and - should be considered as so. Will continue to follow this title - tough the points presented (seen lot worse).

I went into this one expecting something else and without any previous knowledge of the author or the story, and I am pleasently surprised.
The story does not add anything new and it is a plain and simple Revenge story with a deadly super ninja assassin, full of cliches and stereotypes, one dimensional characters and and a foreseable plot from beguinning to end.
Never the less, Epic Kill is a very fun read and I am looking forward to the second volume.

Initially quite enjoyed this, but the more it went on, the more disjointed it became, with a ludicrous narrative jumping one way then the other then back again. A good idea, but all got a bit muddled and confusing.

found the story line to be a bit disjointed
