I read this Hardcover this last weekend, as a friend had a copy.
Even with rescripted dialogue… it makes NO FREAKIN SENSE. I gave up after issue 4. No sense. I had no idea what was going on.
The coloring is nice. The ordway inked stuff is… so weird to see.
It’s a nice collection of Youngblood. If you’re into that sort of thing.
