Comments: Leo finds himself faces a guy who wants the box. This guy does want the box and will do whatever he has to to get it. Leo does end up on the run from this guy and his goons. The box is magical yet Leo does seem to have trouble getting it to do exactly what he wants it to.
The art is dark, lots of black is used in it. The people need to be drawn clearer. The box itself as far as you can see is just an ordinary-looking wooden box but it is hard to see any detail on it the way it is drawn.
The mystery man after the box picks up Claire, Leo’s lady friend. This guy does have an air of evil about him. It is subtle though. So Leo and Claire do get reunited. They do seem to go together well. Well, they both are now running for their lives.
The story does pick up a little here. It would be nice to have some background on Leo and Claire. Leo is an ordinary man who somehow ended up with an extraordinary box. Is this box good or evil? Does it depend on who has it?
It does leave you wondering
