"A thrilling debut that mixes quirky sci-fi with stunning visuals." —GonkBonk

Now, as the bodies of world leaders pile up, famous works of art go missing, and other strange crimes dominate the headlines, only the device’s creator, a run-of-the-mill science geek, knows what’s happening and sets out to stop Rykers' seemingly endless revenge tour.

“The comic visually looks solid and has a devilish playfulness about it when it comes to the art… Recommendation: Buy.”
– Graphic Policy
“Takes a unique approach in creating some scenes that leap off the page and grab the readers' attention. The art is the star of the show here, taking a solid story and pushing it to new heights with gorgeous facial features and lush surroundings.”
