*No, a cat did not walk in my keyboard; this was an actual score.

Comments included:
--Everyone was interested in what happened next and a few already read on to volume 3; those who had, really liked the long story arc. It was reminiscent of other works but presented ideas in a new way. It also handled vigilantism way better than Mark Miller’s Wanted. Visual noir elements and colors were well done. A few found it hard to sympathize with the protagonist and felt the supernatural rules were unclear.
