Noble Causes #24 - Image


Welcome to another installment of "As the Pages Turn". Here is the mryiad of plots that we have going on under these covers. Celeste is trying to help Race get his powers back. To do that he has taken him to Dr. Wiseman for some experimental surgery. Rusty's in jail, for blowing up the chopper last issue, and killing the people inside. Gaia is trying to do what she can to get him bailed out. Rusty was trying to find out who replaced his girlfriend, Rae, with a robot. Celesta and Dawn are having an affair. And I'll tell you what, Celeste is smokin' in her bra and skirt. Race and Liz are having marital problems, because Race won't confide in her about what he's up to with Celeste. Also because he hasn't really communicated his feelings, or pretty much anything, to her since he lost his powers. Gaia finds out that Rae has always been a robot. Doc built her for Rusty, because he was becoming so emotionally detached from everyone, since his accident that put him in his robot body. But now he has to figure out, one if he can rebuild her, and two if he should. No one has know about this except for him, until now. Race undergoes the experiment to try to give him his powers back, and Liz goes along for emotional support. However, something goes wrong, and it looks as if he could be harmed. Liz goes in to pull him out, but she can't get herself out in time. It looks like the ray, and the experiment, has just switched hosts. And this, was just what we saw of all these plots in this issue. We still have another dozen or so characters that we haven't even touched base with in this issue. Jay Faerber has a very tightly woven little soap opera going on here. And Jon Bosco's artwork is getting better with every issue. This is a very fun read, and very cool. It's hard not to get caught up in the plot of the Noble's.
