Review! Grifter #1:DC New 52 (The Bad)

COVER: Cafu. Nice.
STORY: Nathan Edmonson. Okay, so Grifter is confused and on the run from something that is never
               made clear. The creatures on the cover never appear in the book. I also was not aware that Grifter
               was invulnerable because that is the only way he could have survived a fall from a jet liner. We also
               do not see the mask until the final panel (and I wont even tell you how he got the mask and why it
               was painted when he put it on). Grifter is the mask! Its what makes him different and cool.
               Without it he is just another white guy with guns. DC you could have made this title so much
               cooler. Another missed opportunity.
ART: Cafu. The art is okay, nothing special. There is a bit too much Gary Frank in there (another guy,
           Gary Frank must be the "go to" guy for swiping these days).
FINAL FILE: #1 and DONE!...they broke your toy Jim Lee.
