When he was a child, Neil's father was murdered by three of his co-workers--a trio of corrupt cops who also left Neil with scars all over his body. Neil has dealt with two of his attackers, with only one left. But with the police closing in, and events spiralling out of his control, can Neil get to the truth before the truth gets to him?
Brisson doesnt come at Wild Animals crime story straight on. The series approaches the genre more from the side, relying heavily on Neils personal story to enter and navigate that world. Neil isnt truly treated like a criminal or investigator. Instead, his inexperience in this world remains front and center. Wild Animals unexpected approach to a crime story makes it especially compelling, and Wild Animals #5 is a definite high note for the series to go out on. Read Full Review
It wasn't what I expected. It was a good issue, and it had a twist. It just didn't end with a bang like I thought it would. Still a good series overall.
