With "B.P.R.D.," one of the joys is how they take these supernatural stories and add such a background and various 'scientific' explanations, that it feels more grounded than many other books with similarly out there origins

This tickled my nostalgia for "Plague of Frogs" quite a bit, but ultimately the last few pages when McWhirter and the navy were lost in one fell swoop was what really did it for me.

I think it's safe to say that this issue did not turn out the way I expected. I mean, for the most part the plot was exactly what I was expecting, but in terms of tone, I had radically different expectations. I was bracing myself for the worst, but the worst didn't happen. Considering what I was expecting, this issue is downright sunny.
