The length requirement makes it hard to review stories like this one, where there just isn't much to say about them. Story: sometimes, a story is best told in the span of one chapter, this is one such case. There's an intricate story of 40 chapters contained in this handful of pages. Art: the art is this bizarre 80s style (think mullets and suits with shoulder pads), quite different and unique compared to the mainstream. Character: there is enough narration to have a good understanding of all the characters and their motives by the end of the story. Enjoyment: I found it to be a story betterthan most. I suppose part of the beauty of the one-shot format is that it doesn't drag on for too long so it can't fall into the traps of longer format stories; the fact that there's no room for unnecessary details and story arcs means that it is destined to be a suspenseful ride through the entire story, if the author is competent (she is).
Overall: 8
