An undercover cop (Victor Campbell) enters an old warehouse to meet with “The Fixer”, the muscle bound vigilante who has been independently and aggressively taking drug dealers off the streets. Victor is shocked by what he sees in the warehouse office, a former fellow SWAT officer (Kent Dawning) who had been assumed dead for over five years. But not only is Kent alive, he is the Fixer. Kent, who looks nothing like his former self, now looking more like a tweaked out drug addict tells the story of how he became fixer for the first time and how it has consumed him to the point where normal life is no longer a option to him. 

Let me start this review by saying that this one is just a preview for the entire comic book. And I read it because I wanted to see if the full comic book was worth the money and time I would spend on it. And I’m gonna give you the answer for that at the end of this review.

This previews sets sets up a crime-based narrative filled with intrigue and tension. Which I personally found to be very interesting, intriguing and fun to read. 

The concept of this preview is promising because it has the elements of corruption and redemption woven into the plot. Which made me give this preview some extra points for because I liked what this preview was doing with the concept. 

The storyline in this preview had captured my attention as I was reading this preview. But I need to be honest here and admit that at times it feels somewhat introductory because it doesn’t five away a lot of the details of the full comic book. And in a way it helped this preview because it got me all interested in reading the full version of this comic book. 

The characters we are introduced to in this preview had the potential to be very good characters. Because the characters in this preview showed us glimpses of complexity and moral ambiguity. But this preview only touches on their motivations and backgrounds which left me a little bit annoyed at this preview. 

The artwork in this preview effectively captures the gritty atmosphere of the story, using a dark and edgy style that complements the narrative. Which made me give some extra points to this preview. Because the visuals in this preview enhance the mood of the storyline and creates a intense and suspenseful setting.

This preview tries to give us the themes of crime, morality, and redemption which in a way adds depth to the narrative of this preview. While these themes are compelling, their exploration remains surface-level in the preview, which again annoyed me a little bit in this preview. 

So will buy and read the full version of this comic book ? Yes I will. It might take some time for me to actually read the full version of this comic book because I have been way too optimistic when creating my TBR list for this year and I don’t know if I get the time to read the full version of this comic book this year. But I will read the full version of this comic book at some point in time.

I Give This Book 3 / 5
