Our characters this issue decide to make an escape from Tabula Rasa. The place where they were being held. Mainly because it's coming down around their ears. So they find a transporter device, and decide to take a chance with it. They end up in the middle of a jungle somewhere. And not just any jungle. A jungle with a Sabre-tooth Tiger, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and other various animals from that era. Almost like a Jurassic park. But it's not a zoo, per-se. Caitlan, who landed here separate from everybody else, finds out that it's more of a hunting reserve. It seems like the same people that made them, created all the animals. But, when they did, they also gave them intelligence and voice. Caitlan is talking to them. Which means the loin cloth she's wearing, that she made from the Sabre-tooth Tiger she killed, was actually . . . . well . . . she doesn't really want to think about it. Anyways, it appears they gave them intelligence, to make it a better hunt. They end up taking down the hunters, and left them to the fate of the animals, and they take their vehicles and are ready to head out for the next adventure. But it looks like one of the animals, a rather odd looking cat/monkey green furred kind of thing, is following them. Not sure what that's all about. But, in the meantime, Gail Simone is really making us feel like we're back in the old J.Scott Campbell Gen13 stories. Back when it was fun. Without being to corny or overly dramatic. So I'm saying, I like the direction that she's taking. Alvin Lee fills in on pencils this issue, which are . . ok. He draws a really nice Caitlin in a loin cloth. But Talent is still on the cover. I'm really starting to dig this book again. Thanks!
