About this edition
29,5x21 cm
Plot
The year is 1964.
Bailey doesn't realize he is about to fulfil his tragic destiny when he walks into a US Army recruitment office. Secretive, damaged, innocent, trying to forget a past and looking for a future, Bobby is the perfect candidate for a secret US government experiment, an unholy continuation of a genetics program that was discovered in Nazi Germany nearly 20 years earlier in the waning days of World War II. Bailey's only ally and protector, Sergeant McFarland, intervenes, which sets off a chain of cascading events that spin out of everyone's control. As the monsters of the title multiply, becoming real and metaphorical, the story reaches a crescendo of moral reckoning.

Una gran historia que con saltos en el tiempo, justificados sobre todo en lo emocional, va narrando las vidas abocadas al desastre de varios personajes. Con los mismos mimbres ya se han hecho tebeos parecidos, no es por lo tanto excesivamente original. Pero lo que cuenta lo cuenta bien y eso da mucho gusto. Donde sobresale el tebeo es en el dibujo y en la narrativa, que decide quedarse y explorar momentos que otras historias más ansiosas de llegar a la acción habrían dejado fuera. No es una obra maestra ni falta que le hace porque se disfruta sin esperar que te cambie la vida.
