Plot
The trail of revenge and blood that Raven is leaving has shaken the world and she still has to face the two most powerful "heroes", Darius and Micron.
Art
It is very detailed and full of highlights that show everything from the most intimate moments to the most devastating, with gore or explicit details of viscera and blood, it is undoubtedly hypnotizing. This issue includes several pretty good funny sequences that the art elevates them with a lot of charm.
Summary
Raven confronts DJINN and Shade, as she prepares for the final battle to eliminate the Council of Justice, but there is a secret that Raven is hiding from Sarah.
Amazing and dizzying penultimate chapter
I thought this issue was pretty solid outside of the flashback. The only reason for the flashback was to explain the crystal dart. He didn't even bother telling us that the flashback was over, which I found very confusing. The battle scenes are good and the fight was the dragon was cool. Looking foward to this wrapping up.
