Most Original-Looking Comic Book I've Read in a While
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
As an artist myself, I couldn't help but be completely stunned at the amazing depth that the creator, James Turner, gave to such a unique version of Hell. Inhabited by Nihilists, this circle of hell is appropriately goth and black, but the graphic design style continues to tickle your eyeballs with geometric buildings, unicycled tanks, and stylistic columns with sharp-angled skulls on the bases, and skull pattern motifs upon the walls. This is not only a comic that I want to read, but I want to ANIMATE it, as well. Filled with tons of additional little speeches and Memes floating about perpetually, it always has additional Easter Eggs for you to discover or go back and find.
Astounding

I don't have a single negative thing to say about this book. Everything is excellent. The artwork is fantastic and it really grew on me. The test itself is very well written, and if looked at closely, could raise quite a few eyebrows. I can (and have) read this book over and over again, it's that good.
Amazing Gem!!

I loved this book! The Art IS UNBELIVABLE. Some Mix between RUssian Constructivism and BAuhaus, All Black and white ,very cinematic panels.The story is very entertaining, centering on ,yea you guessed it!! NIHILISM and the philosophy of the absurd!!..A must buy for anyone interested in very original and artistic comics!!
cool is just cutting edge conformity!

Don't get the impression that this is a serious allegory of conflicting ideologies. This is a dark comedy that plays with the silliness of taking almost anything seriously, against a backdrop of rickety victorian dystopia. The artwork alone is worth the price, but the story is quietly very funny.
