A year has passed after the government outed the clones. A hate group has popped up thinking the clones are an abomination. This series is great.

Since volume 1, there has been quite an interest in this series and enjoy the artwork as well. However, this book opens up with the saving of other clones, whom the world is looking to destroy altogether, and Luke (original alpha) does all he can to save his clone-legacy. Moreover, there are religious overtones or undertones depending on your preference; yet, I am curious to where this is going with the Biblical tone of one woman and her clan reasoning for also killing the clones. Kidnapping. Fighting. Killing. Action. All the things needed for a future TV adaptation or movie.

Ex: "Wolves in sheep clothing..." but see how the female character states it in the graphic novel. I really enjoyed the sister clones too. I am ready for part or volume 4 in the series.

Disclaimer: I borrowed a graphic novel copy from Hoopla (Sac Libraries) and giving my honest opinion of the graphic novel.

The government has declared clones to be "not human" and therefore killable without lawful charge. In fact, they WANT people to do their civic duty. This has led to coalitions against clones.

In the meantime, for there safety, little Eva is placed carefully out of danger by her mother. Hopefully.

Luke is rescued by clones. Not his brothers, but someone else's .. and they're female, Asian women. His "sisters" (because they're clones too.)

The star of the show continues to be Juan Jose Ryp, but this arc seems like they are going a little over the top just to be edgy. The political maneuvering of the previous arc seems to be mostly forgotten.

Decent pacing and a pretty good cliffhanger

[Henry Fosdike · Rating 3 out of 5]

More of the same. This time the clones are being hunted down by fundamentalists (as well as the government but that's a mostly forgotten strand) who seem to think murder is okay if what you are killing is a clone. Meanwhile, some other clones arrive from Japan and tell everyone they can live with them on a Japanese island... But only clones, which sucks for our main character with his wife and kid.

The series is definitely running out of steam at this point so it's not too surprising that it got cancelled after volume 4. Everything is getting a little too silly by this point, a little too convenient when plot points intersperse. C'est la vie. It's still perfectly fine but not quite as exciting to read.

The action really heats up in Volume 3. Think this the last "free" volume of Clones via Comixology Unlimited. Just might have to break down and buy the fourth and final Volume. Gonna have to see this exciting story thru to the end. I enjoy the story and the art. A good combination for a graphic novel.

Je suis étonnée par les dimensions et la profondeur dans le développement de l’histoire que les auteur ont réussi à donner à cette série dans ce tome

[Adrian Bloxham · Rating 4 out of 5]

Don't know what's going to happen so kept reading

[Joey Heflich · Rating 2 out of 5]

Okay, I'm done. It's a derivative thriller that will fit right in on some cable network's schedule. (And holy shit, this book has to win some sort of award for subtle, negative female tropes while at the same time employing a female president.)
