You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Jul 20, 2022The issue wraps up with the second part of Adam Gorhams Dark Passage serial. It feels a bit strange having the B feature in a series be the ongoing episodic bit while the main feature is a series of one-shot stories. The serial feels like a weird 4-page afterthought that isnt allowed to make enough of an impression to carry over into the next issue, which is a pity. It looks like an interesting story, but it doesnt seem to work in little 4-page bursts once per month. Read Full Review

A pretty good read. It's a litte predictable, but it was enjoyable for what it was. Art has always been the high point of the series.
