Another great read, though actually a 3.75 stars rating as it's more an arc and a half of secondary character work, plot-clean-up, and set-up for bigger things to come than it was a continuation of the central story.

Even so, marvelous stuff and vastly vastly better than 98% of all other comics out there at present. ( )

trouble with the cult that worships Tommy

This is such a great series. Always worth the read. Up there with Y: The Last Man and Sandman for comics that get your brain going for days after you've finished. ( )

After not reading this series for many months I admit that it was a bit tricky to get back into. I've forgotten many of the details, but after the first half of the book most of the major plot points came back. A lot of this collection seemed to be building on previous story lines without having any major events, but the authors do give Tom Taylor a new (and seeminly powerful) companion to replace his vampire/reporter BFF. Tom might be a powerful entity in his own right, but the twist on dyslexia is an interesting concept. Not only does this give us a broader character base (how often do we see learning disabilities in comics?), but it also gives the good guys a potentially powerful new ally. ( )
