The dude can pull out a good background every once in a while, but simply CANNOT draw faces well, let alone consistently. The story is OK, but not great - in a couple volumes, the copious Dark Horse footnotes at the end make for way better reading. MAIL is braindead boring, and quickly dismissable as such if read after Kurosagi, coming off as some kind of practice version of the latter. As for Golgo, at least 3 or 4 times, the shrinkwrap deterred me, denying an opportunity to flip through. This week, I'll just go and grab a couple volumes.
