The Mission #6

the-mission-6-coverDo you believe in good an evil? What would happen if you were chosen against your will to take part? How far are you willing to go to protect yourself and your family? Paul has been asked to retrieve the box for Gabriel and he knows all too well what failure might bring.

The mini-series featuring a normal family man thrown into a world of spies, killers, and religious artifacts ends with Paul answering those questions for himself. After sitting down for drinks with a member of the other team, and getting a straight answer for once, Paul learns just how far he will go by torturing Luke for the location of the mysterious box.

The series may be over, but the final page twist tells me we having seen the last of Paul or his mission. Plenty of questions will be answered, although far more will be raised, in this final (for now at least) issue of the series. I’m looking forward to see where the title goes from here. Worth a look.

Detective Comics #880

detective-comics-880-coverSplitting the story between the perspectives of both Batman and Commissioner Gordon, the latest episode gives us a Joker story that’s not really a Joker story at all.

One issue away from the title’s wrap-up before the massive DC reboot writer Scott Snyder continues the story he’s been weaving for months and brings events full circle.

Someone has targeted the Gordon family using an old version of Joker venom. Batman is hot on the heels of the Clown Prince of Crime but discovers, perhaps too late, that the Joker isn’t responsible for the attack on Barbara’s mother or the imminent attack on Barbara herself.

I have mixed feelings with the art in the issue which is especially inconsistent with regards to both Batman and the Joker, but the story itself, including the reveal, works quite well. It looks like Detective Comics is one title DC plans to let go out with a bang.
