Ex-Machina #29 - WildStorm


We still don't know who this guy is who's decided to interfere in Mayor Hundred's life. But, we do find out a little bit. His name is Augustyn Zeller. And he works for a special effects company called WETA. Which is in New Zealand. And is where he's been for the last few days working. So how can he be in 2 places at once? Well . . . that is the question that we don't really get an answer to. At least not yet. Unfortunately, all the information they did find out about him . . . was after the fact. Mayor Hundred confronts him, as he holds his mother and Kremlin hostage. Mitchell has him on the ground, and is ready to beat him senseless to get the information that he wants, but the guy zaps out before he can get it. During the process though, he was talking to Mitchell's mom, as Kremlin was knocked out . . . and I think she's been able to figure out a little bit about this mystery. But she hasn't had a chance to talk to Mitchell about it yet. So he's still in the dark. We also see a little of January's game this issue, as she tries to break in to the Mayor's private vault. But Wylie almost catches her in the act, and sends her on a different mission. He doesn't confront her know, but I think he knows that something's up. He probably wants to confer with the Mayor, before he decides what action to take. As usual a fantastic story by Brian K Vaughn and Tony Harris. I'm impressed by the complexity of this story, and this whole series actually. But I'm even more impressed that they can keep this whole thing straight. There's an awful lot involved in this series. But they continue to keep us on track.
