One
thing I’m not a fan of with “Drafted” is that the
issue presents an array of art that never quite
looks the same with every three pages. Sometimes the
pages look slick, sometimes the art is blocky, and
most times it struggles between anime style and
realism. Granted, it’s still a beautiful book, but
more consistency would work for the overall tone of
the story. Issue number 7 presents the possibility
that I frankly saw coming a mile away, but it also
allows us to take a look at that common problem with
being drafted in to a war. When you go to war, going
home is never the same. And our characters are about
to find that out as they come to grips with their
new situation of serving to battle against an, as of
yet, unknown foe that threatens humanity. What is
threatening humanity? Why hasn’t anyone really
questioned the species training them to fight in
this war? Why is it our responsibility?
