Amazing!

A fantastic story! The reader is brought into the world of a contract hitman, one who is actually good at his job and does his homework. We see the world through his mind, his views on life, and the morale's that he lives by. A great addition to any graphic novel collection, and definitely one to be passed on through the ages.

It's a killer.....

Having to wait between volumes is gonna be a real "killer" (sorry, can never let the opportunity for a bad pun go to waste!). This is indeed a great,moody and dark graphic novel for the mature crowd,one that has me mighty glad i've "come back" to the world of comics.This is well written,with great illustrations. I'm already addicted,with this first volume...Makes me wonder what else i've missed the last dozen years or so! "French noir" comics?!? Sign me up!!

refreshing

One of the best new graphic novels that I have read in years. Definately a must read, must own.

Killing is an art, and the french have made a masterpiece!

This story about the journey of a hitman will definitely become a movie. It shows you not only the inner workings of the french writers mind, but also a new and fresh view of an assassin's. This is one of my new favorites! Don't hesitate to buy this, even Blair Butler pushed it on Fresh Ink on g4tv, on oct 19 2007 episode of attack of the show.
