Buddy you should read the series as a whole. Warren Ellis has been phenomenal on this book.
The final issue. The final act. IO has betrayed the world, and Skywatch wants to burn it. The only people in the middle are Jenny Mei Sparks' ragtag team of wounded orphans of the secret world. The storm has hit. This is how it ends.

FINAL ISSUE
That last image, as well as the entire series, is beautifully rendered by Jon Davis-Hunt. He has done a tremendous job Illustrating the scripts by Ellis. These two creators worked wonderfully together and the series ends on a high note. They have more than accomplished what they set out to do and this book works on a deeper level too. It's a satisfying conclusion indeed. Read Full Review
A fitting finale to a truly remarkable series, this issue is full of drama, action and out and out heroism, all presented in a glorious package by the Ellis/Davis-Hunt/Buccellato/Bowland team that has kept a mostly consistent standard of quality throughout the run. While the fate of one or two characters is a little unsatisfying, the issue is excellent, and the series is easily one of the best things DC has produced in recent years. Read Full Review
The Wild Storm #24 isn't the best issue of the run, but it is a solid conclusion. A new Wildcats mini-series is what's next, but I still want more Authority (…and possibly some Planetary?). Worth a look. Read Full Review
Though it is sad to see The Wild Storm go, Ellis ends the issue with eyes towards the future. Whatever it may hold, it has a high standard to live up to. Read Full Review
Yeah, man. It's pretty effin' good. Great art, stunning character moments, new mysteries for the sister series, old storylines successfully wrapped and an exiting new status quo for what comes next. This is a finale done right. Read Full Review
This series gave me new appreciation for theartwork of Jon Davis-Hunt. Im not sure where he goes from here, though it saysWildCATS will return in August. Noword if hell be involved or not, but it would make sense. Read Full Review
The success of The Wild Storm has always hinged on this being her story and she manages to take it home in spectacular fashion here. The Wild Storm sticks its landing. Read Full Review
This series suffered from many narrative issues over the course of its run, but it delivered spectacular visuals and the final arc was among its strongest. Read Full Review
Perfect!
Perfect series. Perfect ending.
A satisfying enough ending that isn't an ending, really. Bring on WildCATs and hopefully that book can live up to the fantastic action scenes of this book.
Coming in on issue 23 and 24 on a 24-issue arc sucks. Especially because this ended so powerfully.
Thing is, I have zero frame of reference on this book. I don't know the characters, who's good or bad, but it's clear that the book had something going for itself.
Love the sequence with the diverting of the "missile" to instead blow up the spaceship. Beautiful, well executed.
Simple yet distinctive art. Perfect for the purpose.
7.0/10. Probably would be higher if I had context.
