It had to happen, right? After the first arc that ended with issue 3, the team found out that they now had the support of a few people with limited resources. So what's a predominantly time displaced team to do?

Well it seems that Kikuyo, a Jap gal, used to come from money and so ... it's time to make a trip home to visit Japan ... as is the norm in such comics, no one gives a damn about passports and international boundaries and before you know it, bang, they are in the land of the rising sun

Now even though years may have passed, the next crazy thing is because Benitez is so awesome at drawing weapons and armour ... guess what?
The Jap @ home is also garbed in all these hi-tech shit. It all looks very pretty (finally) and loved the colouring. So what happens next? Well, that's why they have see you in next issue blurb at the end. Hahaha!

After the awesome promo poster and the unique countdown style of the opening mini-series that ended with a huge bang even though a number of the panels in the various issues are mini-posters rather than sequential storytelling (who care when it all looks so beautiful, right?) ... I am surprised and delighted when they announced an ongoing and with the same creative team

So what happened?

Why did the first issue right from the covers felt so different?

I really cannot be sure but perhaps it is because the artist tries to be less flashy and more detailed and as a result, everything feels shrunken down and minute if that makes sense. Well, if it doesn't please buy a copy and compare. Heh!

As for the story, it's about people from different timeline who get plucked out of their time and get involved in a long ongoing intergalactic conflict that has finally reached earth. After the opening miniseries, here we see our protagonists coming back to modern day earth where their de facto leader, an American bloke tries to get everyone settled down only to find out that not only is his record of existence wiped out, it seems as if people actually do not remember him.

So what the F is going on? And that's when the fun starts once again as we delve deeper into the mystery. SPOILER ALERT. In case you  think the aliens are gone, nah, they are making a come back too as this series progresses so keep an eye out because it is still good
