Any fans? I just started with the first 2 trades but I'm hooked. Always a fan of Tony Harris' art....one of the underrated illustrators IMO...

The best is yet to come for you on this series as Vaughn ratchets up the stakes over the course of Mayor Hundred's four year term. This is the book Green Arrow wished it could be when they made Ollie the Mayor of Star City. Some real bravura storytelling on the part of the creative team and how they handle flashbacks and the back story reveals. You can tell why Vaughn was hired as a writer on Lost as a result.
Wait until you get to the pace in the series where Harris' switches to more delicate Gray tone washes. It's mind blowing.

I've been hooked on this book for a few years , it's just wrapped up unfortunately. Great story, great art...this is how it should be done. I keep recommending this along with Fables to anyone who will listen.

It's a real shame the Vaughn has left comics for Hollywood.
Y the Last Man, Pride of Bagdad, Runaways, The Hood, and even his hugely ignored Swamp Thing run starring Tefe are some of the freshest concepts in comics published in the last decade.
