It's a shame really...,

This review is from: Inhumans, Vol. 1: Culture Shock (Paperback)
McKeever weaves a believable (for a comic) and enthralling story, involving a colorful cast of teenage characters. Teenage characters who happen to live on the moon. And have super powers.
The plot is strong and well paced, if not a little long-winded. This arc probably didn't need a whole six issues, but in the digest form it's cut down a bit, making it a reasonable length for what goes on. The characters can be identified with easily, especially by teenagers, but the focus on the characters is a bit off. It isn't clearly shown in this digest if McKeever intended for San to be the main character or Tonaja, or if this is indeed a team book. Later in the series Tonaja takes the spotlight, while still keeping the team aspect of the book alive. The art is very nice, and the fantastic culture of the Inhumans is explored by the creative and beautiful penicls and inks. This is the type of book where creativity can really be used, building and characters may look quirky and unique. This opportunity was taken advantage of, creating a cohesive and amazing look to the book. With a solid story, great art, and fun characters, this digest is a winner. I'm disappointed that a second digest hasn't been published, and that the series was cancelled after just over ten issues.
