Keyman: The Hand of Judgment is one of the most misleading series I have ever read, and I mean that as a complement. Everything from the story's plot, direction, characters, and world are not at all what I expected them to end up being at the end when I finished the first chapter. What started off as an innocent story of a T-Rex police officer and a mysterious little girl attemtping to solve the murder of who killed the hero Keyman suddenly takes an abrubt turn into a much darker and thrilling tale. I cannot say what this new direction is without major spoilers, butknow that small questions such as "Why do beastmen exist in this world" are not only unexpectadly answered as the series acts as if it perfectly normal at first, but it is one of the many dark and jaw dropping twists of this series. It's a series that you can't read for a second time with the same outlook as the first due to the foreknowldge of the end.

The series does not shy away from mature topics, some of which may even make you feel alittle uncomfortable upon its revelation. But for me, it just made it that more engaging as it showed that it was purely the author's vision of the story without any sort of outside hinderence or censorship.

The artstyle can seem a bit conveluted at times especially during action sequences, making it difficult to see what exactly just happened. But do not let that discourage you as the series does have some phenominal artwork.

All in all, Keyman is a series that will surprise you when you least expect it, and by the time you digest the revelation just thrown at you, the series will slap you with another. It is a series definetly worth your time.
