Bobby Doyle can stop time. 

A very large bomb is going to destroy a very large area of London.

What should Bobby do ? 

This is the first of Accent UK,s Blessed/Cursed imprint.
It deals with the duality of any special ability,
in that there will always be a downside.

This square bound American comic size black and white comic book explores the concept of stopping time, which is brilliantly explored in ways I could never have imagined, and has nothing at all to do with someone who can run fast,

trust me it all comes together.

First off I was really impressed by the overall quality of the publication its glossy colour cover alone makes you want to pick it up, once you do the interior pages continue with beautiful black and white artwork  by Marleen Lowe who uses clever gray tones to further enhance and to create effects between time and time stopped.

The written word by Dave West who you may remember gave us the fantastic Wolfmen with Andy Bloor.
It immediately draws you in, once you start reading it you just cant put it down, now I don’t want to give to much of the story away but suffice to say an evil act is afoot in so far as a huge bomb planted in a landmark building and only one man has the power to be able to do anything about it and that’s Bobby Doyle who if you hadn’t already guessed can stop time while still able to move freely. The resulting way Bobby deals with this menace is beyond heroic, you see that instead of stopping time just to save himself he uses it to save as many other people as well all the while paying for it by shorting his own life in the real world.

it costs £3.50 and It could well be the best £3.50 you could ever spend on a Comic Book.

We here at Whatever Comics give it a 10 out of 10
