This issue was the wrap up to the "Gizmoid" storyline from last issue. Walt Simonson really seems to love these Apokolips storylines. He's got the Female Furies running all over St. Roch this issue. And I'm really liking Renato Arlem's pencils. Obviously my first choice would be Howard, but since that's not possible, Renato is a more than adequate fill-in. He's got a good style. His panels flow smoothly. And I can see him getting a little more refined every issue. This guys going to go a long way. Anyways, the Gizmoid has used Kendra as a template. So there's an "Attack of the 50ft Woman" thing going on here. Well . . . a woman that's a killer robot and wants to wipe out all existence on our rock here. But, since it used Kendra, she also has an attachment to it. So she ends up armoring up, and gets wings that generate out of the armor too. Since hers were destroyed last issue. The Furys can't take down the Gizmoid. And Kendra knows she can't do it alone. But, when they all work together they get the job done. The Furys gather up the Gizmoid, head back to Apokolips, and leave Kendra to pick up the pieces in St. Roch. And she's already on to another mystery. She's been looking for Hath-Set, and his urn is in the Gotham Museum. She makes a call to Bruce, and we'll get a nice team-up next issue.
