The Imitation Game was a very interesting take on Alan Turing's life. I was familiar with some of his work in computer science but not on what exactly he did. Ottaviani clearly did a great deal of research to make the story as accurately as possible. What really made the story interesting, though, was the story of his personal life. How the government handled this at the time is clearly something many in 2016 could not possibly fathom. Turing was humiliated and how the story ended proved just how much that affected him. The art was also well done. This wasn't a superhero story so there was no need for the bright colors and crisp drawing. This story felt real and the art perfectly complimented that.

The story was a bit confusing to follow at first and the art seemed to change styles a little too often for my liking. This was an advanced copy so maybe a few things have changed, but I don't think they would have made any major changes really. I was hoping that the story would have tied in more with the Supergirl show and it was completely different. I really enjoy the basis for Martian Manhunter, but this could have been executed a bit better.
