This introspective book (collecting Vision #1-12) covering Vision's attempt at creating a family for himself in suburban lifestyle brilliantly depicts the everyday challenges people face when trying to “fit in” and “make it in life.”
A perfect read for newcomers and lore-buffs alike, Tom King nails the rapport and conversations between the synthezoid family members vernacularly, using academic language that toes the line of verbose. He uses this lens of cerebral curiosity that Vision and his kin view the world as a vehicle to ask more existential questions about conformity, grief, and family.
The art is consistently great. Some visual motifs are quite poignant. I stopped to stare at several panels, and I particular noted the use of vibrant and warm coloring on several pages that starkly contrasted the colder colors of the more robotic scenes and settings.
This comic book made me cry. I can't overstate how profoundly thought-provoking and emotionally moving I found this miniseries.
