Got it after reading the NPR review. I knew I was in for trouble when I saw the tag line "Warning: reading this will make you smarter." More eye rolling ensued as I read it. As another reviewer said, it's basically just nerd pandering and wish fulfillment for people who want to see the military get what they dish. The protagonist is self-absorbed and even obnoxious, his only redeeming quality being that he's "smart" and feels guilty about what he's doing, though the author doesn't do a convincin...

Read as purely escapist fiction that uses real science as a basis, this book is entertaining and enjoyable. The main character is so smart that he isn't really believable, since he is able to make major theoretical and practical advances in multiple fields of research, i.e., the kinds of things that would be accomplished by multiple teams in the real world, but he is clearly an idealized avatar for the author. Putting that aside, he acts in many ways like an actually techie, dropping the occasio...

I read one issue of this and noticed the info at the end detailing the authors research and the tech (and other things). That blew me away with some of the things that I read were actually real.

Great art but not really my cup of tea.

This book is awesome! In contention for the best book ever written this book assures world peace and end to hunger and sexual satisfaction for all! Of course since I wrote this book I might be slightly biased =p. Give it a read and tell me what you think, it was a labor of love. Very proud of this book!Here is a link to the video trailer for the book;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmAVRO...

Redefining F = ma one issue at a time…The Top 5 Reasons you should pick up this awesome new series:1.It will make you smarter… or at least you will start to get a small grasp on what is going on in the story that makes you feel stupid.2.The creative team on this is fantastic. If you are not following them yet, you should be: @topcowmatt and @RahsanEkedal3.The story is unique, officially classified as non-superhero, but as you will see, there are some pretty super things about the main character....

The artwork is black and white, but highly detailed, so that's a plus in my book. Even though there are references to plenty of existing technologies, this book is not really restricted to geeks who have heard of them before. In fact, it's more like a high-school movie starring the genius who does good via not-so-good means. The setting is mostly inside a state-of-the-art research facility for the defence department and it's believable if you can ignore that one genius who makes everyone look li...

Comic books are a "I get it, or I don't get it", a form of literature and entertainment. Science is a " I get it or I don't get it" discipline and/or form of academic study. And Think Tank is one of the best comic books that uses science that I've ever read. It reminds me of the movie " Real Genius", and puts a darker and more exciting spin on the concept. And creating a wholly original, take on the scientists responsibility to mankind, and the pursuit of intellectual challenge, and work done fo...

This is one of the best new comic books out there. Perfect time to jump on as this trade collects the first 4 issue arc. The tag line on the cover is on the mark. It's made me smarter as I learn something each issue and it also seems to have made me notice more science and technology posts and articles since I started to read it. Matt Hawkins is a talented writer that gets you to care about the characters. And Rahsan Ekedal brings the story to life with his art. Read it, you won't regret it!

Think Tank is a fun comic and well worth a read. I'm a sucker for eccentric brilliance, and Dr. David Loren fits the bill as a prodigy playing out schemes and plots to leave his government-assigned bunker in the dust. The writing is smart (I actually learned things, which is always appreciated), Loren is snarky enough to be interesting without being wholly unsympathetic. Plus there are some twists that I didn't see coming. Well played, and well worth a look.

Fabulous new series that puts the science in science fiction. Smart book that keeps you entertained. Gorgeous artwork throughout. Kudos to Matt Hawkins & Rahsan Ekedal.

A genius trapped into creating futuristic weapons for the army attempts to break out of his secure military lab (read: prison). Packed with intense action and moral dilemmas, one of the coolest things about this book is that most of the science is real and actually being researched and used today (thought-readers, chameleon suits, etc.).

Man child escapee driven with heavy science and military presence. I didn’t particularly care for the art or writing and the subtle racism/misogyny didn’t help matters BUT! aaaah that final twist, that got me wanting to read the next issue

AH! I love, LOVE LOVE this story!!! So, if I could have a super power it would be to be a physics genius. Well, that and control the weather or be Emma Frost. Ok, but anyway, for about ten years I've had a physics hot spot so when I found this comic I was sooo excited. Of course, as is my timing on most things is bad, the run was almost over so I had to wait for the graphic novel to be published.So worth the wait!!!This is a great series and as soon as I get a little cash I'm going to buy the ne...

A NetGalley first reads The author of this review received an advance copy for an honest reviewI'm casual in my knowledge of science, so from the reviews I was worried whether I'd enjoy this series, so for future readers, if you enjoyed say, the first three seasons of the show "Eureka," you'll be able to enjoy this. And the author does take time to explain the real science behind the story, but its in the after bonus content, but there's not much that'll go over your head otherwise. The story is...

One of the most intelligent and interesting titles of the year, maybe even the decade. I strongly suggest picking it up, but don't read it all in one sitting... If you do read Think Tank from start to finish, there's a chance your brain will explode and rain down knowledge and brain matter all over the place*. You want to be around for volume 2 don't you? You've been warned!*DISCLAIMER: This book won't really blow your brain into tiny fragments.It will make you more awesome after reading it thou...

4The main reason I found this series was when I was looking to purchase all the Postal series and discovered there was a crossover with Think Tank, Postal and Thithe. Think Tank immediately stood out as I enjoy these military thrillers. I must admit I haven't read a lot of Matt Hawkins but my local comic store has mentioned him with high praise. Why the 4?The volume is fun without being too graphic. I was expecting something violent and out there but what we have is a comedic and chase style sto...

Hated the main character, loved the twists and turns. A man is selected as a child genius to become a military weapons developer. Isolated from the world, he makes killing machines, although he doesn't want to. My question - how does an isolated geek, kept in a lab and fed junk food become a suave, handsome, worldly man with a 6-pack. Answer - only in a comic and I didn't buy it.

I’m coming to this series a little late thanks to POSTAL and the TITHE. Going all-in on the Edenverse universe means I needed to go back and read these. I like the story line fine, though it feels a little dated now, but the black and white art doesn’t quite land with me. Sticking with them but glad I can get the series as part of my Comixology unlimited plan.

Dr. David Loren, a genius working for the military, decides to quit making things that kill people.David is a massively annoying character - smug, lazy, mentally looking down on everyone he doesn't see as equal to him (so pretty much everyone), and sure that he can solve any problem he sets his mind to. Watching him break out of the secured area he lives in/works in was fun, but I don't feel the need to continue in the series, because I don't want to read more about David.
