I received a copy of this through NetGalley.
It's hard to really judge a first issue of a comic, but I'll do my best. I love the setting, and the characters introduced already have my interest. It sets up the premise of what could become a very interesting series, but that's where the problem with this issue lies. It's an extended introduction (which is obviously fine for a first issue), so it doesn't work all that well as a standalone. I'd like to see where it goes from here, as I love noir-inspired stories like this.
On a final note, the art is very nice, with a sketchy black-and-white look that lends the story a lot of atmosphere.
