Wow. What an issue. What an ending, Butcher really is a fucking shit, and he proves it this issue by killing MM. That final scene where the two of them fight was just gripping, shocking stuff. ‘I don’t have any mates’, how chilling was that? I’m not quite following what Butcher’s full plan is, Ennis has a habit in this book of never really explaining anything until it happens, and even when it is, you’re not sure, it’s an echo of the corporate-type speak that companies like Vought use I suppose. It all boils down to Butcher wanting to kill all supers and the rest of the team trying to stop him. I’m worried about them, I don’t think Butcher can be stopped. This issue, man, it’s crazy, I can’t wait to see how this is going to end, there’s not just the rogue Billy Butcher stuff, there’s also Vought on trial, and even Annie and Hughie’s relationship.
