The Weatherman Volume 1

This was a fun read, the story moves in a cheerful breezy fashion with visuals to match and peppy dialogue that reminds me of Brian K Vaughn stories, but it's not quite at that level, with occasional lines that make me wince like "off the reservation" (this being scifi, try imagining a future where people don't say that anymore), and it's not that deep, either. But the series has legs, and I'd like to see the next volume.

This was action packed. Reminiscent of The Authority somehow to me, but mostly plausible science fiction as opposed to superpowers. Maybe it was just the pace, but it felt like more than that somehow. Anyway, it was definitely enjoyable, in a brutally violent sort of way.

The story is a bit revenge fantasy, and also a bit whodunit. I’m reserving judgement on the over-arching story until it’s wrapped, and I probably won’t get that from the volume 2 that’s sitting on my shelf already. The art is pretty fantastic though, so I’ve no regrets so far.
