Wildstorm - Revelations #2 - Wildstorm




This is an interesting book. I'm not sure what's going to come out of it . . . when all's said and done. But I'd like to think that maybe we'll get a new WildCATS book. Maybe? Anyway, Nemesis, Backlash and Savant are on a 3 woman mission to find out what's going to cause the Apocalypse that Void tried to warn Nemesis about. They know that it's been planned for many years, so they've decided to raid the Authority's database, since they probably have the most extensive gathering of information on the planet. Well . . not exactly on the planet, I mean . . about the planet. They're never on the planet, since they're always on the Carrier which is in the Bleed. Long story short . . . after a brutal showdown . . it ended up being a waste of time. They have a lot of information, but it doesn't go back as far as they're looking. So, they need to gather some older intel. Nemesis decides to play the "dating game" with Mr. Majestic. But really, she's just trying to distract him while the other two are in his headquarters at Mount Rushmore. He's been around for centuries after all. Almost as long as the Coda. Their only lead is a file about some hero's that disappeared at the beginning of the cold war. But as they were downloading it, the file deleted itself. So, they're just going to have to find some people old enough to remember the old-fashioned way. With books and speech. So . . they're on their way to Tranquility. Scott Beatty and Christos Gage are the writers, and Wes Craig is the artist. The story is great. The art . . is actually . . very good. But, I think, Wes is a newbie. Some of his panels are awesome, and some of them . . . show potential. But he's not consistent yet. But when he does become that good . . he's going to be a talent to be reckoned with. Overall I think it's a great series. Like I said, it'll be interesting to see where it goes from here.
