Ratings and reviews

Only tells an incomplete of the story, that's the problem with spreading a story across many comic books. Also too much anticlimax. Supposedly invincible bad guys are easily beaten, and despite numerous warnings of everything dies, nothing happens. The potential in the previous volume was totally lost. I will say however that the artwork is fantastic, if it was that alone I'd give this five stars.

Felt like pieces of story was missing. And there is..same with vol.3. Not cool when you're trying to get a story across. Especially one as involved as this was.

Like this better than vol. 1 storyline getting better.
