Imagine you're in Jr. High and you're instructed to create a graphic novel. You combine Moby Dick, sci-fi, and Violence Jack, and come up with this failed piece of paper.
I'm not a huge fan of graphic novels, but I am able to enjoy them from time to time. This was not one of those times. Rick Veitch cut so many corners in this plot and tried too desperately to be profound that it just fell flat. Not only that, but after he quickly wraps up everything at the end, he concludes with "Twenty-Five Years Before the Mast: An Abraxas Memoir" by Rick Veitch, in which he explains the process of creating this and how all his childhood dreams have come true.
Don't read this. It earned a 1.
