Deadman #13 - Vertigo


This is the final issue of Deadman. And that's sad. It's sad when any Vertigo series comes to an end. They are usually all so well done, that it's just a shame when they hit the wall. And Bruce Jones and John Watkiss can be proud of every issue of this series. I'm sorry it didn't last longer. But, I'm sure we haven't seen the last of this character. To end the series, Sarah's baby is finally born. Or course it's not born to her. It's born to Jack and Eve Kendall. Brandon and Sarah are in London. And Jack and Eve are in LA. I think. Anyways, Cain Industries took it form Sarah, and implanted it in Eve because of it's enourmous power potential. We also found out that Brandon's brother, that's been haunting him throughout this series, wasn't actually his brother. But a demon named Devlin. He says he's trying to save the world. But, in order to do so, Brandon has to kill the baby. Devlin insists that in order for the world to survive, one of them has to go. Brandon or the baby. So Sarah gets the baby, and gets on a plane with it to head home. Brandon and Devlin are the pilot and co-pilot. And Devlin's instructed him to crash the plane and kill the baby. But he can't bring himself to do it. Mainly because he loves Sarah so much, and he doesn't want to hurt her. So he brings the plane down, but as he does so he dissolves. We then see Sarah and the child, six years later, going to the circus. Sarah put off a little bit because as they enter grounds, she see a banner that says "Here Today! The man they couldn't kill! The one . . . the only . . . DEADMAN!" Like I said, it's a shame this one had to come to an end. But I'm sure there's more story to tell. Someday.
