really liked it
bookshelves: graphic-novels

I'd heard good things about this, and I was in the mood for a graphic novel. What I encountered was different than what I expected. First of all, this graphic novel is not for kids. There are themes and scenes that are quite adult. Second, we are thrown into a sci fi dystopia that engages in not only political tyranny but graphic biological and genetic experiments on its population.

The story focuses on lowly John DiFool who comes into possession of an item called the Incal, which everyone seems to want, causing him to be on the run. The incal at first seems to be magical, but winds up being a super high tech form of live intelligence.

I enjoyed this first edition to continue with the series.
