I'm not a huge fan of classic superhero art design, so I found myself wishing the art looked more like the cleaner/prettier images in the cover gallery. The story follows a lot of superhero origin stories pretty closely - Quin gets exposed to a meteor and finds out he's invulnerable. A lot about his story will evoke comparisons to Luke Cage, especially because a Black man who can't be injured or hurt lends itself so well to examining social constructs and state/racial violence in both series.

The plot itself was... fine. Nothing new or unexpected. The story starts to untangle the connection between prison industrial complex/carceral violence and the role of superheroes in society, and that was the most interesting thing to me about it. There is a depth of content to mine there, and I'm interested to see what the series does with it.
