Cyril and Beryl have the fight of their lives on their hands when Shakespeare's most evil monarch, Richard III, returns! And he's brought with him a cloned army of all the worst Kings of England, intent on taking back the country through the use of social networking! Yes, that's the plot!
Personally, I wanted to give this a Must Read verdict. I loved the bits of British humor and history that are packed throughout this incredibly fun issue. However, I do recognize that most American readers aren't going to get a lot of the references and might have a hard time tackling this issue without some familiarity for everything that Cornell is referencing. I'm part of the target audience for this book and so I loved every second of it. If your not, though, it's still a great read, but you are missing out on a lot of what makes it phenomenal.

The strongest read yet for Cornells latest attempt to broaden DCs canon of Anglican superheroes, but still lacking the punch it needs to truly sell Knight and Squire as the more jolly analogues to Batman and Robin.
