While this Cardinal isnt sure how all this came to be, it was nonetheless just getting good good just as it finishes at an abrupt 11-pages; though Im definitely on board of this hellacious ride. Thankfully M.O.D.O.K.s on deck, and hes got plans to overthrow Victor and take his place as Ruler of Battleworld. Oh, only by popping out multiple versions of his hideous self to carry out his plans. While Ed (The Mantle) Brissons tale sounds like a silly concept and it is! it ends up twice as hilarious as each version of M.O.D.O.K. resembles a familiar hero or villain. As you can imagine, chaos ensues when these turds take this battle into Bickerworld. I wonder whats next.

Brian Buccellato (The Flash, Hellbalzer) tells a fun team-up tale I thoroughly enjoyed, despite the fact it was Eddie Nigma himself who put Bats through, arguably, his toughest ringer in all of Year Zero. The future, here, is far.. far different.

The new Image book by Jonathan Hickman (the upcoming Secret Wars) and Ryan Bodenheim (Secret, Halycon) is intriguing. Ryan's art reminds me of Preacher and Punisher MAX's Steve Dillon, with slightly more attention to detail. The book is very cinematic, and flows like a film.
