There's this thing that happens where people who don't read comics occasionally all decide to read a random "serious" comic, and then decide it's great because it doesn't have Batman in it.

I fall for this every time, and read these dreadful books waiting for some event on the last page that redeems the rest of the book. It never happens.

Nominally a story about fake news in the aftermath of a grisly murder and it's effects on people who knew the victim. Actually the story of a guy who is going thru a divorce and for some reason decided to take in a person that he barely knows. He gets incorporated into an online conspiracy theory and thus experiences online harassment for his trouble.

None of the characters experience any growth, any new understanding, any catharsis, or any insight about fake news. For the most part they are passive recipients of fate. Teddy, addicted to listening to Alex Jones talk about his dead girlfriend, experiences no realization about Alex Jones. Instead, Alex Jones moves on to a new story, and Teddy loses interest. Calvin, conflicted between trying to put his family back together or pursue his career, has his decision made for him by his ex-wife, who wants nothing to do with him. And so he chooses his career for no other reason than that his family rejected him.

The ominous online harassment due to fake news never amounts to anything except for a few fake outs.

I expect the art is supposed to come off as workmanlike, but it's actually fairly incompetent. Perspective and proportions are all over the place. The art lacks contrast in basically any imaginable category resulting in a total lack of dynamism. It's difficult to tell the characters apart, particularly characters of the same gender. Even the lettering is incompetent, resulting in me squinting and straining my eyes despite having perfect vision.
