The Simonson / Chaykin team has struck again. At the end of last issue we saw Carter come back. But, is it really him. Somebody has arranged for Khimaera to be transfered out of the holding cell at the Police Headquarters. You just know how this is going to turn out. They find all the policemen dead and after she's sucked out their life force, they look like they've been dead for weeks. Obviously they want her to go after Kendra again. Whom, is busy talking to Carter to try to figure out what is going on. But she may not have much time left, because he seems to be aging by the minute. But the Khimaera, rather than attack her directly, as she's standing outside of her building, uses her powers to take over and control Carter. And with those powers, sends Kendra into a deep trance and trys to get her to commit suicide in her dreams. Meanwhile Hath-Set is also staking out the Halls. He's a little farther off than Khimaera, so he see's her and decides to let her play out her hand before he trys anything. Meanwhile Kendra has a meeting of minds with Shiera. Sort of. Somehow Shiera's spirit comes to her to try to break the bond with Khimaera. When she does, she finds out that Carter is really some gangbanger from the docks that had been mystically altered to look like him. He taps into Khimaera's powers again, so he can try to take down Kendra, but when Kendra slaps a piece of armor over his head the feedback causes his head to explode. Which really pisses Khimaera off so she decides to go in to take car of her herself. Which is where the issue ends. This is quickly turning in to a must read book every month. Excellent job guys!!
