• I really dig the timeless feel of the designs. Morales draws more than a few plays out of Batman: The Animated Series’ playbook, but I don’t think you’ll hear many complaints on that.
• Nei Ruffino absolutely deserves top billing for her colors on this issue. She is just as responsible for how great the art looks as Morales. The amount of depth she adds to the art is staggering, as is her ability to manipulate light here.
Verdict: Buy It. Brian Azzarello is definitely writing towards his strengths in First Wave and because of that, is writing to a niche market. The average superhero fan may not care much for such a carefully plotted and slow burning story, but mystery buffs and fans of classic pulp stories should find a lot to dig here. The ambitiousness of the project does come back to haunt Azzarello a bit when the scope becomes cumbersome here, but if you’ve got the patience to sort it out it is well worth the more careful read. Plus, seriously, Nei Ruffino is a freakin’ rockstar on this issue, bringing Rags Morales’s art to a whole new level."... a freakin' rockstar!
yay!
