Not much hope remains as Lord Slive and his fear creatures have gained control over Perspecta and the Earth.

However, the journey itself is a task very few have ever survived, and Theo¹s chances of making it are not looking up!
Created by Michael Turner and Frank Mastromauro, with illustrations by newcomer Jonathan Marks and colors by Beth Sotelo, make sure to listen to the voices inside your head and pick up the newest issue of SHRUGGED today!
That's a pretty minor complaint, though, as the issue reads smoothly and well, with only a few moments of "Which girl is that?", a common problem with Turner-styled art. Though Mastromauro's story moves quickly, it's a nicely paced page-turner that sets up the conflict for next time, while establishing Theo as a likeable character, albeit one in the "Secretly The Chosen One" mold of so much recent fiction.
