From the World of Minor Threats: The Alternates #4
| Writer | Patton Oswalt, Tim Seeley, Jordan Blum |
| Artist | Christopher Mitten |
| Cover Price | $4.99 |
The Alternates have gone through hell trying to solve the mystery of who is bringing Prestige, the interdimensional reality-altering drug, into their world. The answers they've uncovered have proven even deadlier than the drug itself, leaving our support group of recovering superheroes with more questions than answers. Who will live, who will die, and who will relapse? Also, what's up with Kid Curious, the child genius hero suffering from post-morality syndrome-is he the key to saving Twilight City... or destroying it? All will be revealed in the epic, mind-bending conclusion to the first Minor Threats spinoff series.

Dec 13, 2023Throughout this issue, we also got to see this team of misfits naturally work together for the first time. It was a great way to wrap up this story, while still leaving so much more story to potentially be told! The Alternates now seem more conflicted than ever before, however strangely more at peace as well. If you're looking for an out there, unique take on superheroes, The Alternates is the one to pick up. Read Full Review

Exciting episode that closes this story that mixes real drama with the mystique of superheroes but mixed with dynamite. ART It is an art with layers of textures that provide different tones for different sequences, where body language adds a lot of meaning to the dialogues and elevates the plot. Summary The Alternates are the alternative we have to save ourselves from dimensional madness. Dizzying closure
