First, let me say that this is one of those series that you REALLY need to purchase a physical copy to get the most out of. The reason I say that goes beyond your standard artwork and into the style and layout itself; basically, you have pages that are set up with words, pages that have giant art spreads on them, some with one or two words, and more. When checking this out digitally - and I did check it out digitally before looking into the physical copy - you lose a lot of that. Second, this is a very engaging story. We cross through different periods while also looking into a constant, money, and what is smoke in legend and what truly remains. For example, what caused the monetary crash in the 1920s and what was the response? Do we trust textbooks that read like hymnals to Wall Street, or is there something more monstrous lurking in the backdrop? I have liked the exploration of that, and I like the way that this proceeds forward, which I have the luxury of knowing something about as there have been more comics released as of now. Currently, this story is closing in on a volume 2, and you can truly tell that this is a horror-themed tale. In the first volume, you could have made that assertion - I did, but I also spoke to people that made an interesting case against this, where this could have still leaned into Weird Fiction or Sci-Fi. I like having some solid horror in tales, and the way the artwork ties into this is amazing. Third, there is the artwork, which is solid. You can find samples of it all over the place, and I would suggest checking them out because they are well worth looking into. Tomm Coker does a great job here ( I liked his contributions to Near Death and Daredevil Noir in the past), and I wonder if having some directorial experience in movies helps with that. This helps with the way this is put together, giving the tale a disjointed feel that adds to the way this comes together, while also making something someone can easily follow along with. I really like the series. It is horror, the kind that can induce some thought into what is going on, and not the shallow type we sometimes see on display these days.

So if you have had your suspicions that the global financial architecture is propped up by a demonic cult, this graphic novel has your name written all over it. The story begins with a flashback to the great depression and the money cabal of that time and jumps around toward the present where a Rothchild is murdered in a ritualistically brutal manner. Investigating this murder and slowly revealing the nature of a world that is controlled by supernatural forces is the spine of this series. It has great character development and it preserves sufficient mystery and suspense to keep the reader engaged and asking for more. In its own way, it is an interesting metaphor for how the world of finance works. There must be an element of vampirism in our global economy that makes this supernatural tale of money and power so engaging. Looking at the world of finance as a battle between different magical schools that play with the lives of ordinary mortals as fodder for their own ravenous appetites is one of those black and white narratives that our moral consciences find so compelling. Some of my friends have wondered whether this series comes too close to anti-semitic tropes of the past, but I believe even though the authors use the Rothschilds as part of the narrative, they have done a good bit of work to distance this work from a work that would give comfort to anti-semites. Another interesting question about this work is how well does it metaphorically represents the current global financial order? That is a deeper question that will require a good bit of reflection to figure out, but the merit of this graphic novel series is it does begin to get you to ask the questions about the justice of the current world order. Friends of the market will find this graphic novel to be one more attack on capitalism, but it will be interesting to see how this story unfolds and what nuances the tale might uncover.

A very engaging story about the connection between banking, murder, and Mammon. Competing Satanic circles overlap in their attempts to control the power centers of the world. Like most of Hickman's books it is well researched and intelligently presented. There are depths to this story which are hidden and still in plain sight. It is not a happy story and even those at the top are filled with paranoia in their attempts to hang onto Much is said. Much is not said. The delivery of material is non-linear, spread out in scenes and redacted documents that show a global scale of what the protagonist is investigating. I went out and got the second volume immediately after finishing the first. This is a read that requires a good degree of thought. It's not a slug fest.

I don't read a lot of comics, but this is by far my favorite. I bought this again to re-read after lending my old copy to someone and never getting it back. I wish they'd pick it back up.
