Echo, Numero 1: Moon Lake (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
This is review for the entire series. In retrospect Echo is an action movie, but instead of the explosions and T & A, most of the excitement and tension is character and relationship based. It is a an action movie for Women. Over the 30 issue run, you really get to know these flawed hopeful characters, and the overarching feeling of doom that seems to stand in the wings has you wishing it will all turn out okay for them. Cross your fingers and give it a try.PS: Ironically Echo has more Explosions and T & A than 3 action films put together, but you won't notice, the characters are too interesting. This is an intriguing start to this series, but so far nothing very special. Government conspiracy, troubled relationships, blah blah blah. I like the sci-fi aspect though, and of course Moore's black & white artwork is beautiful, so I will probably stick with it (but borrow them from the library or work, as opposed to spending 13+ dollars per volume). It ain't no Strangers in Paradise, but of course I know it can't be. Still, I hope it picks up the pace.
