Before I  start, as always, this is just my opinion and there&#8217;s an audience out  there for just about everything, in theory. Here&#8217;s the thing: the art  really isn&#8217;t getting appreciably better, the dialogue goes from bad to  really bad, depending on the scene, and the story isn&#8217;t going anywhere  at all that I can make out. When the dialogue goes &#8220;jive&#8221; it gets  hilarious, but I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s intentional. There was only even one  fight scene in this one, so I couldn&#8217;t even recommend it for the  mayhem. I&#8217;m not giving up on this series, mostly because Adam has been  nice enough to send me each issue, but there&#8217;s really not much of  anything in here for me to recommend it to, well, anybody.
