This five-issue series already has a sequel in the works and its ending is another allusion to an Ellis work: "The Authority" #4 where the question of right and wrong is measured in a body count. Were more people saved than died? The Authority were content with the answer while, here, we get a different answer, a more heroic one. Saving the day may be all that matters, but that doesn't mean you can't do it better next time. A wonderfully optimistic message if I've ever seen one. Read Full Review
Ultimately, whilst Anna Mercury #4 and #5 have been enjoyable enough comics, I haven't enjoyed them as much as the first three issues, as they've felt like inconsequential and unnecessary additions to the story. Still, there's enough to enjoy here in Ellis' punchy, energetic writing and Percio's dynamic artwork to justify purchase for fans of the book. Just don't expect it to stay with you for very long afterwards. Read Full Review
