Hadrian's Wall, Issue #1 is by the same team that created C.O.W.L., and I've been meaning to read it for some time. It takes place in Seattle and in space the year 2085. An astronaut is murdered in space, and an earthbound detective is hired to find his killer. Detective Simon Moore is addicted to pain killers. The reason why he takes painkillers is that he was shot four times by the very astronaut who was murdered. That astronaut also married his ex-wife
If you liked C. O. W. L., you'll probably like Hadrian's Wall. The artwork is similar, and it's a real mystery, very engaging and a nice distraction. Rob Reis does the artwork and the coloring, both of which I particularly like. The deep blues of the space station are unique, giving a true feel for the future. Hadrian's Wall is the name of the spaceship. Troy Peteri does the lettering; I've been a fan of him for some time. It's also a longer issue which I appreciate.
