Description
David becomes increasingly more desperate, and his extreme behavior is causing fights with everyone who cares for him: with the devilish Mr. Black, the saintly Mr. White, and even with his loving parents. But his quest goes on, driving him to break the rest of the ten commandments in order to draw out the elusive divinity to face a grief stricken man. Until, finally, he is faced with the most serious commandment all: "Thou shalt not kill." Will he do it? Or will God stop him?

Advance Praise
"Michiru Morikawa has a delicacy to her art, and a fine way of personalizing the cast during dialogue free sequences, although some of these would originate in the script. She's very good indeed, and David's characterization is as much down to her strong emotional depiction as any dialogue. Despite the topic, much of the graphic novel is contemplation and conversation, yet there's never a dull looking page."
-Slings and Arrows
"Superbly engaging and wickedly barbed tale of lost love, disillusionment and grief-filled reaction that is both hilariously acerbic and potently thought-provoking."

Just a brilliant book. An Everyman character, gutted that his wife and young child have been killed in a drunk-driving car crash, challenges God to appear, else he will break all ten commandments. The fact he goes about this cry for help his way (ie not the pathetic, self-serving, self-protecting commandments first) is just one great thing about this book. Mr White and Mr Black aren't quite as you'd at first expect, either. The fact that people are not seeing the man's actions as a cry for help, but an atheist's challenge, a rhetorical request, just goes to show the point of the book is a most valid one. Both halves of it are superlative, even if you might wish for it not to be styled as a manga.
