BONUS REVIEW by SHANNA BERRY
WHOA! Okay, let’s catch our breath after this one. So much is thrown
at you in this issue! Can I just say that Mark Waid is insane?! We
finish up the Orian confrontation and finally get some clarification with
Bette’s big secret, which is my ONLY complain of the book. Last issue
ended with us wondering what the true secret is, and we find in this
issue that it’s exactly what we learned last issue with a small twist.
Slightly perturbed by the lack of importance of the big reveal, and for a
moment I thought, “Man, Waid must be slacking because this really seems
unoriginal” and them BAM! Two page spread with events that come out of
no-where! From that page on, hold onto your knickers, it’s a
suspenseful ride! That’s what I get for underestimating the King!
If you aren’t reading this title I must ask: do you even like comics?
