Ok . . it seems like we made a little progress this issue. By that, I mean . . I thought we made a big improvement in the creative talent. This issue is brought to us by Adam Beechan and Cruddie Torian. Rafael Albuquerque did the cover. Anyways, I really liked Cruddie's work. He's new, so he needs some experience, but . . he shows a whole lot of potential. It seems like he's been influenced by the 'Image' style of art. I can see J Scott Campbell influences, as well as Art Adams. And a few other 'Image' influences here and there. But for the first work I've seen from him, I thought he had a great handle on the characters. On thier way back across the country, the Gen13/14 crowd has come across a settlement in Wyoming. Actually, they come across a fire-fight, which involves a group led by Pike and what looks like a bunch of pirates or rebels. Pike has a new group he's put together. They're some kids that have gained powers similar to the ones of poeple he's worked with, so he's given them new, similar costumes and names . . Kid Backlash, Crimson, Union and Void. Anyways, they've come across an old I/O base and have set up a settlement called New New Haven. It appears that the other group has also found an old base and are using the weapons they've found to try to get the shield generator, that Pike's found, away from him. The Gen's end up helping them out, and then show them how to use the computers in the base. Caitlan tells him that if they use the computers right, they should be able to find all the other I/O bases, as they're all connected. However, something isn't working right and they've only got about a 40 kilometer radius of connectivity. But there's still a few bases within that range, so . . in the end they end up helping Pike and his group of refugees. However, after that they decide not to stay on and rather continue their journey back across the country. This is going to lead them through Authority #18 and WildCATS #19 before they come back for the next issue here. Overall . . it looks like it's going to be a pretty exciting year for WildStorm and it's cast of characters. I can't wait to see what 2010 holds in store for them.
