Doktor Sleepless #1

One-sentence summary: Warren Ellis' new Sci-Fi series delivers a promising start, replete with interesting characters and a plain-spoken version of Ellis' futurism.

While a series can't really be judged well by a first issue, Doktor Sleepless certainly seems like it will be an interesting read. Its gritty art matches the story well. The designs on the various futuristic elements of the story grounds them in such a way that this future seems not just realistic, but near.

This is a well-done start to what hopefully will be an interesting new Ellis story. Hopefully a more complete review can be given for future issues, but, for now, things are looking very interesting.
