First line: These troops want me bad!
Why you should read this book: Although I found both the
plot and the artwork somewhat convoluted and difficult to follow, the tale of
this ridiculously lucky transdimensional alien/slave/rebel
leader/amnesiac/pretty boy remained strangely compelling. Basically, imagine
that David Bowie is a comic book superhero in the ‘80s, with monstrous bounty
hunters chasing him through an increasingly psychedelic landscape. There’s a
girl who’s pretty cool, and a bad guy who’s pretty revolting, and some
inexplicable magic, and a knotted back story that gets slowly unraveled, plus some cameos by more popular Marvel characters.
Why you shouldn't read this book: Really, it doesn't make all that much sense.
