Giant Robot Hellboy #3

Giant Robot Hellboy #3

There’s not a lot of answers in the final issue of Giant Robot Hellboy. With Hellboy unconscious on the floor of the secret cabal who kidnapped him the robot he’s no longer connected to continues to fight being controlled by Hellboy but not Hellboy… um, yeah. The giant robot continues to knock off various monsters on the island. Meanwhile, our intrepid soldier Jian escapes the island thanks to a warning from whatever shared consciousness is powering our Mecha-Hellboy.

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #302

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #302

Although they refer to themselves as mutants, call we all just admit this feels an awful lot like G.I JOE ZOMBIES? Picking up from the previous issue, G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #302 gives us Zombie Serpentor (as I will be referring to him from here on) taking control of the mutanized rabble on Cobra Island from where he plans to lead his troops on a quest to first take over the rest of Cobra and then the world. It’s exactly what you would expect a zombie horror comic of G.I. JOE to be.

Darth Vader #41

Darth Vader #41

Picking up the story with Darth Vader having been infected by Scourge as part of the Dark Droids crossover continues. Darth Vader #41 basically features a battle of wills between the Dark Lord of the Sith and the droid virus which attempts to convince Vader to let go of his remaining humanity and embrace what Scourge offers while Vader uses Scourge’s own droid virus to turn droids to his control leading to lots of carnage but basically a standstill with an epilogue teasing the storyline which will begin after this arc concludes.

Harley Quinn: Black + White + Redder #6

Harley Quinn: Black + White + Redder #6

Harley Quinn: Black + White + Redder #6 provides our final three tales of Harley Quinn‘s wacky adventures in black and white (and red). We get Harley helping the Bat-Family and also breaking the fourth wall to talk to the reader discussing her various incarnations over the years and present motivations in a very Deadpool-like “Harleys All the Way Down” before stopping the crazy plot by Dr. De-Extinquisher King whose giant robotic Dodo, with Nightwing and dynamite strapped to it, is running wild over Gotham City.

Moon Knight #30

Moon Knight #30

And so we come to the end. More of an extended epilogue (with a couple additional epilogues thrown in at the end) than a final issue, we get the gloating and reasoning of the Black Spectre and the death of Moon Knight to prevent the former friend turned super-villain’s attack on New York City. We also get Zodiac making a deal with the Midnight Mission, a Leverage-style tease for Marc’s former comrades continuing on without him, and a final word from writer Jed MacKay who promises the journey isn’t over just yet.
