Description:

A science-fiction series that asks the age-old question, "What would you risk for a chance at true love?" Meet Teddy, a young woman who lives in a faraway future where time traveling is a common practice and her job is to maintain the status quo by correcting time paradoxes. But when she meets Ano, "a time paradox" and the girl of her dreams, Teddy must decide between fixing the time stream or the love of her life, both of which have unique consequences. A dynamically graphic, science-fictiony, poetical, paradoxical wunderkind of a sexy, time-traveling, adventure-packed comic.

Review:

This was a very confusing and slow moving story, it follows Teddy who is employed as a Time Erasure. It's her job to go throughout time to remove anomalies that appear. If the Time Erasures do not remove them, they could affect time. However, she was unable to go through with her job when she meets an unusual anomaly, a young woman named Ano.

Teddy immediately falls for her and decides the two will try to hide out but two other agents are soon after them. From there the story turned into time traveling nonsense. Teddy and Ano's relationship made no sense, it was just insta-love and I never got a sense that there was a real connection between them. 

If I read this correctly, the meaning I got from this was that if you see something that isn't right then don't sit back and do nothing. Once meeting Ano, Teddy started to doubt her job and wondered what really happened to the anomalies once they got rid of them.

The author tried for something different but the story was trying to do too much and by the end, it became really confusing. I have to say one of the best things about this story was the artwork, it had a Bruce Timm quality to it.
