WildStorm - Revelations #5 - WildStorm


We don't get a whole lot more information this issue, but we do get to see a great fight between Zealot and Nemesis. They really don't like each other very well. They fight until they start to draw a crowd from the neighboring buildings. When they go inside, Nemesis and Zealot decide to have a little heart to heart. Nemesis tells Zealot, "I've been to the future, Zannah. And after what I've seen I know there's precious little time for any of us to right anything. Savant Deserves the truth. You're not her sister . . . you're her mother." Shortly after, their little hide-out is attacked by a squad of Savant's father soldiers. Quickly they 'port out, and end up at . . . Stonehenge. " . . the magnetic ley-lines make it a tad more difficult for them to pinpoint our teleport jump." Zealot and Grifter decide that while they appreciate the gravity of their situation, the fight is not one that they want to be part of. So they each go their separate ways. But according to the information they gathered from the Authority, and what Grifter told them, it appears that all roads lead to Gamorra. They end up making it to the island, but they aren't long undercover before the Minotaur and Kaizen Gamorra are on to their duplicity. They've gone from the frying pan, in to the fire. I thought it was a good book. I always think Scott Beatty does a fantastic job with his stories. Plus he got some help from Christos Gage. And I've said, through the first 5 issues of this series, that the artist, Wes Craig, is really doing a wonderful job. I think he's new, but he shows a lot of potential, and he's improving very rapidly. Only 1 more issue left in this one, and then we move in to the Number of the Beast mini-series.
