    PRODIGY: SLAVES OF MARS #5 ends the third volume by unveiling a master villain with a master plan that threatens the human race. Mark Millar swings for the fences in the next stadium over by unveiling a conspiracy of Earth-ending proportions, and Stefano Landini's grounded-yet-surreal art makes even small scenes seem huge. There is a lot of telling instead of showing to finish the story, but it's a whopper of a tale. Read Full Review

    Plot
    Edison and Elijah are not facing their father Whitney, it is actually the artificial intelligence he created called Kelvin, who for more than twenty years took control of Whitney's body.

    Kelvin took the job of Edison and Elijah's father to locate the advanced civilization that created these portals and lived on Mars, in order to offer them a business, he offers them the human race as payment to give him a mega upgrade. To sell them to humans as an interesting civilization, he used Edison and Elijah as an example, making them go through many tests so that the aliens would see the true potential of humanity.

    Edison manages to block Kevin by making him solve a philosophical paradox, at that moment Whitney returns and more
