  I still dont know what the HERO device is, where it comes from or what its limitations are. But Im willing to forgive that for another month or so. Pfiefer is telling a compelling story, hes introduced a lot new ideas, but he leaves me with more questions than answers. Jerry is, unfortunately, kind of passive; he's more reactive than proactive. It makes him a weaker character than Id like yet Pfiefer has given him a distinct voice and I care what happens to him. I had the similar issues with Vertigo's "Y The Last Man", and it turned out to be one of the best new comics of last year, so I am hopeful. Pfiefer has generated a lot of momentum so far. I hope that he not only sustains it, but also closes out this arc in a meaningful way. Dont take the cheap way out, thats all I ask. Read Full Review
