All that exists, and all that ever will exists rests on the confrontation between two men who are the same man. Peter Cannon versus Peter Cannon, for the future of the canon. Who wins? Who loses? Peter Cannon. Evidently.

    A thunderously resonant conclusion that impresses with its impossibly satisfying finale. This is a creative team on fire and the world deserves more of their collaborations. Read Full Review
