Long story short: from the first few chapters, this thing is a train-wreck.

I got 4 chapters in, so I can't tell you if it gets better as it goes on or not. What I can tell you is that the art is...definitely not good, and pretty much every chapter is this guy brooding about how much humans suck and thinking about the bad experience he had as a soldier. I don't think the storytelling is very good, as very little things happen that I, as a reader, care about, and the story doesn't even examine the human condition effectively. It's just the author using the MC as a mouthpiece, and he's got nothing interesting to say. It's kinda pathetic really, even the flashbacks to this guy's trauma are undermined by the bad art and the fact that the author does nothing to make me care about any of the people involved in the incident. Literally, of the characters involved in the incident, there's only one that's developed at all, and that's only to the extent of the MC passing her in a hallway and remarking to himself: "that woman's a prostitute." The author does nothing to make the reader care about any of the few characters there are.
