Bloody good start.

I feel it might be better than That Texas Blood - which I liked parts of a lot but the plot didn't sing for me. Jacob's art is great here, as it was in that series. I think I've not yet read a Chip Z title I've properly enjoyed - could this be it?

I bought this just to test as I liked the look of it. I'll wait for volume 1 until I read more. Tiny brain won't remember anything much about previous issues if I get monthly issues. Wait, this paragraph isn't review material. Just a sidetrack. FFS...

Very noir filled book. I love the aspect of the odd couple between Newburn and Emily. I think it would've been a great one-off, not sure if I'd keep reading more volumes.
