Another super solid issue. Sherman continues to knock it out of the park with their art and their panelling, and Williamson's story is still intriguing and engaging. I'm hoping we can get more of the characters coming together soon, though, as I feel like we have to jump around a bit in order to make sure everyone's getting some focus in the issue. Though, again, I'm still really enjoying this book.
