What a FCBD book should be

This is a neat little recap of the first six issues from Devil's Due. They've cut out select pages of issues #0-5 and tied them all together with a running monologue. Very nicely done as it provides everything you need to understand this very impressive and ambitious series about all of earth having to quickly prepare to join an intergalactic war to save the planet. While the art does a decent job of telling the story, it has some really weak moments, particularly when there's a lot going on in a single panel. If there's a bunch of background all the lines start to blend together and all depth to the art is lost. Thankfully, there are a lot of blank or simple backgrounds to keep that from happening. I'm going to have to put the first trade on the To Buy List, as this just hit all the right storytelling notes for me.
