A rather quiet issue, but still a strong one, especially in some of the family scenes. I really liked the father-son stuff between Buddy and Cliff, it was cool to see them bond again, especially since you could kind of sense some disgruntlement from Cliff over Maxine having powers. I wonder if Cliff’s vision of the future was actually that or just a dream? Has he met Swamp Thing or Constantine yet? If not, that means it was a proper flash-forward, which is very interesting. Steve Pugh delivers the lion’s share of the art in this one, and I’m liking his stuff more and more, it’s not as crazy as Foreman’s stuff, but for an issue that’s not crazy, it makes sense. I just hope that he can handle it when things get more action-heavy and focussed on those weird cancer monsters that Foreman kicks ass on.
