Volume 1 in this Eisner award winning series seems like a good intro to a larger story - just a small taste to intrigue you. The premise is simple: a mysterious Agent Graves offers a suitcase to people who have been wronged. Inside this suitcase is a gun, 100 untraceable bullets, and information about whoever wronged the target. The three stories in this volume show three targets and their different reactions. It's definitely all questions and no answers at this point, and I'm looking forward to reading more. My only complaint at this point is that so far, even though there is proof about the wrongdoer in the suitcase, none of the targets seem to look at it. Why mention it if the narrative isn't going to use it?
