Stormwatch - Post Human Division #10 - WildStorm


This book had an interesting plot behind it. Again my hats of to Christos Gage for an engaging story. And to Andy Smith for keeping all those female figures looking so hot. Also nice cover by Mike McKone. Anyways, they've stumbled across this plot apparently to kill off some of the old StormWatch Prime members. Specifically from the class of 1983. And more specifically down to a black-ops team that operated under Bendix. They've killed off about 5 or 6 members so far, and it isn't until they talk to the New Romantic, in Tranquility, that they realize that it's all connected through the black-ops team. Paris' team is convinced that it's Slaughterhouse Smith that's behind the whole thing. But, as we all know can happen, the obvious choice is not always the right choice. Especially in these stories. Just because they saw someone that looked like him, using similar powers to his, doesn't mean that the case is cut and dry. Far from it. In fact, if anything, if it's that obvious then the obvious choice is for it to not be him. I know. It's all a bit confusing. But that's the way the logic works in these stories . . . most of the time. When they confront him, he doesn't downplay his contempt for the team. But he also doesn't sway in stating his innocence in this particular instance. Then he takes off and leaves them buried in a pile of rubble. Interesting book. The characters seem to be coming together better. There's a lot of good character interaction.
