Never heard of it.  Whats the premise?

Imagine if you were able to change your reality for a few moments a day just by using your iPhone.

You're still you, but in a different reality where you did something differently.  Like, with the main character, he got to see what would happened if he didn't choke and asked a certain girl out that day.  Or what if he dropped out of college and started a surf shop on the beach with his buddy years ago.

Infinte choices to see what could have been.

The problem for the main character starts when his other realities - his other selfs - are be murdered one-by-one and he could be next.

That's a very brief overview.  The story is far more detailed and the book's artwork is far, far, far too creative for me to capture into words. 

This is like some early day Warren Ellis level cool here.

Wanted to try it but the art just was not for me. Reminded me too much of late 80's Bill Sienkiewicz. The Electra stuff, not the cool stuff.

I just read the solicit in my LCS' website.  Nick Spenser?  I'm in!  I really liked the first Morning Glories trade so this is probably something I'll like.

Just finished the first two issues based on your recommendation.
Thumbs up so far.  I like the premise and the live action panels make it quirky.

I'm not sucked in like I was for Morning Glories but I'd recommend reading it.  I'm on for awhile.
