The Swashbucklers race against the clock to stop an invading fleet before it destroys a planet close to Raader's heart-EARTH! Will they be able to save the planet? Will they find old friends who they thought they had lost?!
Swashbucklers always had a kind of classic anything goes approach sensibility about it that came from a lot of indie books in the 80's and Guggenheim captures a lot of that in the scripts here, for better and for worse. It's something that does feel out of place in the here and now but there's appeal in that as well for people like me. This issue goes for a couple of different weird and unexpected twists and it's something that Andrea Mutti keeps up with easily, shifting from tone and place to new tone and place all while keeping it consistent as a part of the bigger picture. I wish the new subplot had been seeded earlier so that it didn't feel quite so left field, especially with the distance between series, but I'm curious to see how they're going to try and wrap it all up in one more issue.
