I thought I'd "look through the first few pages" of this last night, and ended up reading the entire thing. I was sold after looking at the art on the first page. This book is beautiful to look at through out the entire story, I almost felt as if I was watching a terrifically animated movie. The story is also great, and I like the political symbolism it brings up (which I honestly thought worked better as symbolism of these political issues in general than a symbol of Iraq specifically). The emotions and politics of this book were not "loaded", and never in any way do they force you to feel one way or another, which I really appreciated.
Overall, great book. I'd honestly recommend this to anyone, not just comic fans.
I just want your music tonight
