I don't really have a handle on the characters of this book yet. But, the gist of the storyline is that we're about 5 years in the future of the war. The armed forces are worried about the drive and moral of the new recruits. So they've developed a Motivation & Morale division. They do lots of things you wouldn't normally expect. They allow people to carry their cell-phones with them. Even in to combat. They form retreats, where different divisions get together for a couple of days, and basically anything goes. For the next retreat, they've booked the author of, How to have sex like a porn star to do a workshop. And the recruits have come up with their own party call the Hot Zone Club. Kind of like the Mile High Club, except . . . you know . . . in the hot zone. Now the only thing that Motivation & Morale has to worry about, is news of their initiatives getting back to the families at home. The career service men are having a hard time with some of their ideas. So they're afraid that if people back home heard about it, that their already low "Q" rating would be even more compromised. So of course things start to go bad. Colonel Healey, one of the heads of MOMO, has a meeting with the Secretary. The Secretary is concerned because 6 minutes of video, from the last retreat, have made it on line. And basically it show a huge orgy scene. And in case there's any confusion, most of the participants are still partially in their fatigues. So this issue ends with the Colonel and the Secretary sweating out what their going to do about it. I liked the first issue. A lot! I can't wait to see where it goes from here. Rick Veitch writes and draws it. So you know it's going to be pushing the envelope at all times. I can't wait to see the results.
