Shadowpact #7 - DC

I'm glad that Bill Willingham is still on this book. He's the only one that I can think of that could keep this wild band of characters, and this story straight. Last issue the Wild Huntsman came after our troupe, with his dogs. What they didn't know is that his dogs, are actually his victims transformed. Talk about recycling. Anyways there's a new sorcerer in town by the name of Doctor Gotham. He really doesn't have anything against Shadowpact, other than the fact that given what he does, and what they do, eventually they could prove to be a thorn in his side. So he's decided to put the effort in now to make sure that they don't. Anyways last issue the Huntsman turned Ragman and the Enchantress into 2 of his hounds. Luckily Detective Chimp figured this out before they were magically disposed of. So they've taken them back to the Oblivion bar to try to figure out what to do about them. Turns out, all they have to do is take their collars off. So they decide to put the collar on Rex and send him undercover. They try to go back to their apartments but as soon as they do, somebody else comes after them. James and DC are back at the bar trying to come up with a defined rules of engagement, battlefield doctrines and overriding principles for the group to follow. And the Enchantress has gone to collect on a debt by taking the Cauldron from Adalgisa, for their group to use. "It's the Herne-Ramsgate Cauldron. Think of it as the magic equivalent of the ultimate computer database." And she's returned just in time for James and DC to announce that they've settled on their basic governing principles, "The Three Universal Laws of Superheroics". With a nod to Isaac Asimov. This book actually does get better with every issue. Thank you!
