I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Number of the Beast #5 - WildStorm
There's only one issue left in this series so everything is about to hit the fan. Not quite yet, but . . . next issue for sure. Last issue the High and Dr. Sin both got out of their containment chambers. The High is just trying to figure out what's going on, but Dr. Sin wants to deliver some serious retribution for all that they've had to endure. However, neither may get their wish as the government, even as they speak, is in the process off doing a complete scorch & burn to the bunker and all of it's frozen inhabitants. Dr. Sin, before he begins his murderous rampage, wants to take out a little aggression on the High first. He knocks him out, and puts him back in his chamber, so he can reintegrate him within the virtual-sim. However, this time, as the High is trying to convince everyone that they're trapped and need to find a way out, Dr. Sin has already spread the rumor that he is actually . . the Antichrist. He can't make him much more hated than that. With the recent appearance of the Four Horsemen, they already think their on the throws of Armageddon. So the appearance of the Antichrist isn't that much of a stretch. So instead, the High starts killing the heroes in the Sim, hoping that they'll wake up and then be able to do something on the outside. However . . . we won't find out what that is until next issue. A very compelling story by Scott Beatty, and I think Chris Sprouse is doing a good job with the artwork. Only 1 issue to go.
