BONUS REVIEW by Kevin Healy
 A man with no memory, trailed by a woman with many skills and much knowledge, and men in white suits. Who are the White Suits? They are criminals. They are killers. They want one item: everything. They've taken all they could from the Soviet Union and have set their sights on new game. This is everything you'll learn about them in this first issue from Dark Horse. It's also everything you'll need to know to become engrossed in (IMO) the most intriguing first issue of a crime comic since '100 Bullets'. We don't see much of them though they're in just about every panel. I can't tell you who our protagonist is, because he doesn't know either. I didn't care, and the issue lands right where you'd need it to get you to buy the second. The art by Toby Cypress is fluid, dynamic, impressionistic when it needs to be and almost abstract in spite of itself. There's movement through each page, each figure, each piece of furniture! that stands head and shoulders above many artists trying (and that's the key word, I think)so hard to be original. This felt like a fully realized comic from the first page, and I can't wait for the next. I give it 10 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
