Proof
review 1: Love Proof! This is the first book, the real origin story of the chupacabra that has been weaving in and out of the periphery of the story since her big storyline here ended. It also gives some background on the origin of Proof itself, and the history of cryptids, and backstory for both Ginger and Elvis. Personal favorite moment is when Ginger is sitting in the conference room, waiting for her new partner to arrive so they can be briefed on a situation, and Proof walks in and she tries to shoot him. Luckily, Leander made her empty her gun as soon as she got to the Lodge...though Proof would probably survive a bullet pretty easily.
review 2: While a good idea (fantastical creatures exists, they are kept hidden from humans by a secret organization, and one of
... more the agents is Bigfoot) that takes way too much from the Hellboy idea pool, proof never comes close to being that entertaining. While the art is decent, like someone tried copying Ben Templesmith's style, but lacked the skills, the writing is what really sinks this series. The flow of the story is broken up by this cryptoids (pop-up facts) that are amusing, but not needed. There was nothing fresh or interesting about this series, and I cannot recommend this to anyone. less

It's like the X-Files with Mulder's character played by Bigfoot. Great characters, great story.
