The main reason anyone should have for picking up this series is (at that time) upcoming artist: Brett Booth! This guy can draw the heck out of anything! Of course you can see the facial features are limited and stiff but hey the guy is starting out. In terms of details and the action sequences? Awesome!
As for the story, we have the title character who used to be the trainer for Stormwatch (UN sanctioned super team) who is now operating on his own with others for whatever reason. As the series progresses, we find out that he is extremely long lived because he is half-human, half-alien and part of the wildCATS gang of aliensAmongst his abilities are the psychic whiplash and jumping/ punching/ kicking. Once in a while he will also transform into cloud to get away from situations that he found himself in way over his head. On the supporting cast, the initial, is a new lady love, who has this symbiote attached to her that gives her a sort of body armor
But hey, like we said, just buy the damn book because it was a hit when it came out so it means lots of copies were printed and back issue prices were not that high. You will love it. At least buy the first 5 issues to try okay?
Ratings: 9/10 (artwork)
