This book is engaging, compelling, and skillfully crafted. That's the quick "I only have one sentence" review.
Beyond that, Think Tank vol. 1 is one of the most carefully crafted books I have ever read. Writer Matt Hawkins gives us a technological thriller, made more frightening by the plausibility of the tale. The military has tech and secrets that we can barely dream about. Hawkins gives us a peek into a grim reality that is present, not future.
Artist Rahsan Ekedal is at his best, and his panels compliment the writing very well. You may remember his deeply emotional characters in the Graphic Novel Echoes. He takes a bold forward step with his work in Think Tank.
Your enjoyment of Think Tank is directly proportional to the time you spend reading it. If you can take your time, soak in the words, drink in the art, you will be rewarded.
Think Tank vol. 1 also is a good choice to give to other readers. The story is accessible and short enough to avoid intimidation. I would recommend this book as an engaging escape that'll also influence how you look at the world around us.
