I have been to a slew of conventions this summer, and I picked up Absolution from somewhere, San Diego Con, Heroes Con, not sure where. Absolution has been sitting in a stack of books I picked up along the way until Summer was finally over, and I could take a day to catchup on reading. I just finished a stack of one off comics and a graphic novel, some of which my friends wrote. Disappointed at the lack of story in most of these, I was very refreshed when I completed Absolution #0. I am very excited about where this book will take me. The dark side, the very solid artwork, and most of all the excellent writing give me hope that people ARE still putting well thought out stories into comics. After reading a stack of books with nothing but action shots and no story, I fell very lucky to have been introduced to John Dusk and Absolution. - Chris Harden
