The twin narratives of past and present really collide in this issue, as Orson and Carter finally come to blows. The fight between them was really well done, you could feel the resentment there. Eduardo Risso is doing some absolutely fantastic work here, he’s normally an artist who works within the ‘real world’ so it’s cool to seem him do something so sci-fi and still make it feel real. I was very interested in the flashback sequences of this issue, with Carter manipulating Orson into thinking that they have to kill Ottershaw, I’m dreading seeing how that ends up happening. It was interesting to see that it looks like the Brangelina parody actually did have something to do with Tara’s kidnapping, but it looks like the full details on that will have to wait for next issue. There’s quite a bit to wrap up in the next 2 instalments, I’m excited.

This book did nothing for me with the $1 first issue. Worth looking into the trade?

I'd probably say yes, the art is fantastic, and I think reading it all in one go as a trade will help with immersing yourself in the future-slang that Azz uses.
