Is this the issue where it all comes crashing down? Does the fearsome predator within the dome claim the very life of our hero(ine)! One way or the other, the curtain will be peeled back and the real villain lurking behind it all with stand revealed and that may well spell the very doom of Sheena, Queen of the Jungle! Jurassic Park meets Predator meets Squid Game? Either way, Sheena is Queen of all.
SHEENA: QUEEN OF THE JUNGLE (VOL. 2) #5 is a great ending to a very strong arc for the Jungle Queen. The main conflict with resolved in a satisfying fashion, and the art looks fantastic. That said, there were a few too many surprise reveals dropped through exposition that made the conclusion feel as if it had to rush to tie up loose ends. Read Full Review
The end of this story does leave a number of things open-ended so it can be picked up again from there in the future. With Stephen Mooney departing and a new writer coming on, I imagine it'll go in its own way and hopefully they can find a good path for the character. This was a decent storyline with quite enjoyable artwork that made for a lot of fun, but at this point I think I may be done with Sheena for a while. It's a hard character to do well and to find a way to do her in the modern world that I'm not sure really clicks completely. There are ways to do it but I think it ends up just limiting it to less interesting stories than can be told set in days of the original character. Dynamite definitely has done their work to bring the character to life with a solid team and hopefully they can find more success with it. Read Full Review
