This is the one where our heroes, or genetic freaks, what ever you want to call them, finally stop living under the roof of their parents. The mistake that Dr. Cross made . . . was taking Eddie out of the group. And then . . . setting him up to be dissected. This gets them all worked up. But it was also put into the works, when the televangelist deactivated their obedience chips. And from there . . . it's all downhill for Dr. Cross. Lynch betrays him. Well . . . actually . . . Lynch just kinda' sits back and lets the chips fall where they may. But Megan . . . now Megan betrayed him. "I was so devoted to you. And yet, you knew you'd never let me have you. How cruel is that? . . . I've opened all the security locks throughout the entire facility. Run Doctor. I hear them coming for you. Run! Run! Run!" And then the final nail in the coffin, all of his customers turn on him. So he's pretty much screwed. He actually almost gets away, in the helicopter. But then he's attacked by the 2 little cherubs from the other group. They attack him in the helicopter, and he ends up crashing it into the side of the mountain. So as they stand on the side of the mountain, looking out into the world, and wondering what they're going to do next, Caitlan says, " . . . we do what everyone our age wants to do in this world. We find our place." So now next issue their real adventures begin. Fantastic book, by Gail Simone and Talent Caldwell. I think we may be getting a new artist soon, but Gail will be sticking around for awhile. Just like I have a feeling this books going to be around for a while this time. Salude!
