Detective Zelda Pettibone and mayoral advisor/angel of vengeance Gina Greene are onboard the death train and determined to end Maniac Harry's rampage of terror once and for all! But what chance do two people have against an unkillable, mindless engine of death? And with Harry hot on the heels of the train's only survivors, will there be anyone left to save? Plus: a glimpse of Gi-na's earliest summer camp encounter with the Maniac!
With the series wrapping up in the next issue, this one gives us the brief clue about what may be going on and then hammers it home with the final page so that it's just blunt. I get the reason and even the execution, but it just felt a bit heavy-handed with what it's trying to accomplish. This is a really solid issue all around, however, as we get the final bout of action on the train with a desperate plan that leads to our two leading cops finding themselves acing some realm trouble. I love the bookend pieces overall that expands the scope of things and that it was mostly kept out of earlier issues and am curious to see how it all come together next time in the final installment.

This is the most action-packed issue of Maniac of New York so far, which is both a good and bad thing. Read Full Review
This issue represents the climax and reveals another chink in Harry's armor.
Was probably the weakest issue but, still looked great, still had some good ideas and the ending does leave me wanting more.
