OK, so I'll admit to picking up this because I wanted to try something new and the cover absolutely captivated me. And, I'll be completely honest that I wasn't sure if I was going to like it based on the synopsis. But I did. The art is absolutely stunning. I'd recommend Unnatural for that alone, but the story is super interesting too.

Some comics start a little slow, but not this one. The story from the very beginning was just excellent. I loved the mystery of it all and the political ideologies hit a little too close to reality to be ignored.

Leslie was an absolutely wonderful main character to follow, and honestly, all of the characters (side, bad guys, everyone) felt very fleshed out and real.

I cannot wait to continue this story with volume 2!
