Who is the Hooded Man? What mysteries lie in the heart of the Alchemy Academy? Will Mort and Jo be able to get answers before they're ripped to shreds by mechanical monsters? All this and more in the thrilling penultimate chapter from Frank J. Barbiere and Crizam Zamora!

Precinct #4 leads us to some big moments that finally lays all the cards on the table. The true threat is established, the villains step out of the shadows, and we are left with one last conflict that we will anticipate seeing through to the end with Precinct #5.

Barbiere continues to infuse The Precinct pretty well with personality, though it's mostly Mort that really dominates with it because of the gruff side that comes out beyond his character design and mechanical arm. There's some good action to be had here as the story moves through the right beats to bring us to the big moment where it all goes nuts. Jo's story is one that suffers the most simply because there wasn't the time to really bring the dynamics of the world to life with why there are those so strongly against the Academy. We got the boilerplate side of it but not enough to really give it weight. But with a short series that's to be expected, so it works in context to what we get here and provides for the easy and obvious enemy in plain sight making his move. It's fun and well produced, leaving me looking forward to the finale. Read Full Review
