review 1: Rival gangs in LA and everyone is Asian...whether it be Indian or Chinese. This is set on the future, and they all have "one trick" which is some sort of ability. Basically The One Tricks want to rob this rival gang, and well if I told ya what happened it would be spoiled for you. But this was only the first half of this massive hardcover. The rest were short stories, which didn't impress me at all. Read at your own risk.
review 2: This was always my favorite by Paul Pope, or at least my favorite complete work. The story isn't his best, but the art just hits that special point of amazing sometimes where it's like nothing else you've ever seen. He's probably done things that are better since, but I loved this then, when it first came out, and it still holds up
... moreas a pretty impressive work now. The inclusion of the "deep cuts" here is really a super nice bonus, too - I've always considered myself a PP completist, and I think I have just about every published story by him, but there was stuff in here I'd never seen before... And on top of all that, this is just a beautiful book. less
