I haven't been really enjoying this, but it's not bad. I'll finish the rest of the run, I guess.

Typical for the last few issues this series has produced. Just a lot of unnecessary dialogue, and a very cliche ending where the hero goes mad and gets talked down by others.

It might be harsh for me to describe this as a "relentlessly adequate" comic, but that's how I feel. The art's nice, though I think some prior issues have looked nicer. Strategically, the script is OK. The plot's a trifle predictable, but the character work is solid. The nonstop cliches in the dialogue, though! Every eyeball-rollingly familiar phrase helps persuade me that this story just isn't special. Not *bad*, but not nearly as good as it could be. A dialogue overhaul that made Chieftan Xin sound like 20% less of an idiot would make me a lot happier with this comic. He could even still *act* like an idiot if he talked a little smarter.
