    It´s the end of the world as we knew it...

    w - Dan Abnnet & Andy Lanning, P - Simon Coleby
    After the dramatic conclusion of Number of The Beast enters the new chapter of Wildstorm's heroes: World's end. The cities has crashed and now The Authority tries to mantain some order in the chaotic Unlondon: a virus is assolating the remains of civilization and groups of armed men try to take control of the city. It´s a very sad scene watching the mighty and powerful Authority reduced to scramble, shadows of the past: Jack Hawksmoor is in a wheel chair, suffering with the dying cities; Apolo's strengh is reduced and he has to remain in the sun constantly in order to recharge; Jenny Spark is dead (she saved the world in Number of the Beast); The Doctor comitted suicide; The Engineer has low percentage of the nanotech in her body, so she´s basically a human now; Swift has lost some feathers, but she is all right; Midnighter is still pushing hard (errr...in all ways, no pun intended) and is the most active member in this issue, helping people to get in safety to The Carrier (which has lost the baby universe by the way). It´s an amazing tale of survival, hope and humanity lost in the wrecks of the world (Midnighter calls Apolo by sending baloons to the sky) and it has a good, solid art from Coleby. 4.5 of 5 Gamorrans Kaisers
