The Pulse:
Another compelling issue, but last issue ended on “To be Concluded” and this issue ends on “To be Continued”. So a bot of mixed message. Yes, the God of Hammers story appears over, but not the story the team has bene building to with next month’s milestone. Decent action and intrigue along with the art. 8 out of 10.
