Good story Bad end
A little bit disappointing. I really enjoyed the story line of this four part issue but there was a huge lead up to a pretty poor end. I thought all the tie ins with Sandra Verdugo and her son, Ricky Myers were really good and even the idea that Doc Samson as the father was an interesting and thought provoking idea. The fact that Verdugo and Slater can both get shot in the head and still live to talk about it was kinda disconcerting, I don’t know much about them but unless they’re actually robots underneath all that, then I’d prefer a bit more realistic action.
The format of the comic is set out very intelligently running two stories at the same time so on every second page you can follow the one story but it keeps you turning the pages by interrupting the story line so consistently. Very clever.
I very much enjoyed the last page (SPOILERS) with the two crosses sticking out from the ground and Banner walking away from them, there is some beautiful imagery in amoungst the four issues.
Overall, a great story but the end may disappoint.
4/5
